Abstract
ABSTRACTPaenibacillus sp. strain KS1 was isolated from an epiphyte, Tillandsia usneoides (Spanish moss), in central Florida, USA. Here, we report a draft genome sequence of this strain, which consists of a total of 398 contigs spanning 6,508,195 bp, with a G+C content of 46.5% and comprising 5,401 predicted coding sequences.

Summary
Tillandsia usneoides (Spanish moss) is an epiphyte that grows luxuriantly in the central Florida region of the United States. Strain KS1 was isolated from an epiphyte, Tillandsia usneoides (Spanish moss), in central Florida, USA. We report a draft genome sequence of this strain, which consists of a total of 398 contigs spanning 6,508,195 bp, with a GϩC content of 46.5% and comprising 5,401 predicted coding sequences. T. usneoides is a medicinal plant and is used as an air pollution indicator [1,2,3].
