Abstract
The habitats of the genus Altererythrobacter are various, including marine sediment, seawater, rhizosphere of wild rice, desert sand, etc. The genome of the type strain of Altererythrobacter troitsensis JCM 17037, isolated from sea urchin, was sequenced. This study would not only facilitate the understanding of the physiology, adaptation, and evolution of the Altererythrobacter species, but also provide a good resource for the study of synthesis of astaxanthin, since several enzymes involved in the production of astaxanthin were predicted.
Highlights
The habitats of the genus Altererythrobacter are various, including marine sediment, seawater, rhizosphere of wild rice, desert sand, etc
Altererythrobacter troitsensis JCM 17037 was isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius [9]
We present the draft genome of A. troitsensis JCM 17037 to facilitate the study of its physiology, adaptation, and evolution
Summary
The habitats of the genus Altererythrobacter are various, including marine sediment, seawater, rhizosphere of wild rice, desert sand, etc. The genus Altererythrobacter was proposed by Kwon et al [1]. It accommodates bacteria inhabiting various habitats, such as marine sediment [1, 2], seawater [3,4,5], tidal flats [6], the rhizosphere of wild rice [7], desert sand [8], etc.
