Abstract

ABSTRACTBacillus sp. strain CDB3, isolated from cattle dip sites in Australia, is highly resistant to arsenic. It contains 22 arsenic resistance (ars) genes, of which 17 are organized in 3 ars clusters. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of CDB3, which will assist us in understanding the overall ars mechanism.

Highlights

  • Bacillus sp. strain CDB3, isolated from cattle dip sites in Australia, is highly resistant to arsenic

  • Draft genome sequences were submitted to PHASTER for prophage identification (4)

  • There were 6,236 coding sequences (CDSs; length Ͼ100 bp) and 115 RNAs found in the genome, while the closest neighbor based on genome comparison was Bacillus cereus BAG1X1-3

Summary

Introduction

Bacillus sp. strain CDB3, isolated from cattle dip sites in Australia, is highly resistant to arsenic. Genomic DNA library construction, pyrosequencing, data assembly, and annotation were carried out as previously described (3). Draft genome sequences were submitted to PHASTER for prophage identification (4). The draft genome size of Bacillus sp.
