Mechanism of Biomineralization Induced by <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> J2 and Characteristics of the Biominerals

Biomineralization induced by microorganisms has become a hot spot in the field of carbonate sedimentology; however, the mechanisms involved still need to be explored. In this study, the bacterium <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> J2 (GenBank MG575432) was used to induce the precipitation of calci...
