Abstract
Given the scarcity of data pertaining to whole-genome sequences of cyanobacterial strains isolated in Brazil, we hereby present the draft genome sequence of the Cyanobium sp. strain CACIAM 14, isolated in southeastern Amazonia.

Given the scarcity of data pertaining to whole-genome sequences of cyanobacterial strains isolated in Brazil, we hereby present the draft genome sequence of the Cyanobium sp. strain CACIAM 14, isolated in southeastern Amazonia
Given their ability to synthesize a wide variety of biologically active products [1,2,3], the cyanobacteria have played a relevant role in modern biotechnology
We have reconstructed the genome of a cyanobacterial species by means of a bioinformatics pipeline applied to reads obtained from a non-axenic culture of a Cyanobium sp
Summary
Given the scarcity of data pertaining to whole-genome sequences of cyanobacterial strains isolated in Brazil, we hereby present the draft genome sequence of the Cyanobium sp. strain CACIAM 14, isolated in southeastern Amazonia. We have reconstructed the genome of a cyanobacterial species by means of a bioinformatics pipeline applied to reads obtained from a non-axenic culture of a Cyanobium sp. Data are scarce pertaining to genomes of cyanobacteria isolated in Brazil, with currently only a few strains sequenced [6, 7]. We have hereby applied a next-generation sequencing pipeline according to Albertsen et al [8] in order to obtain the genomic data pertaining to the Cyanobium sp.
