Abstract

ABSTRACTCalothrix sp. strain PCC 7716 is a filamentous cyanobacterium whose morphology is tapered, with basal-apical polarity. The apical filament shows positive phototropism toward white light or blue light. To elucidate the molecular basis of the phototropism, we determined the complete genome sequence of a spontaneous mutant of this strain that has a thin sheath and is suitable for genomic DNA extraction.
