Draft Genome Sequence of a Strictly Anaerobic Dichloromethane-Degrading Bacterium

摘要

An anaerobic, dichloromethane-degrading bacterium affiliated with novel Peptococcaceae was maintained in a microbial consortium. The organism originated from pristine freshwater sediment collected from Rio Mameyes in Luquillo, Puerto Rico, in October 2009 (latitude 18°21′43.9″, longitude ?65°46′8.4″). The draft genome sequence is 2.1?Mb and has a G+C content of 43.5%.
