Abstract
We present the draft genome sequences of two isolates of the Roseobacter lineage, 3SOLIMAR09 and 1FIGIMAR09, which were obtained from harbors of Mallorca Island, Spain, and are affiliated with the Sulfitobacter genus. Both isolates harbor the complete gene set for protocatechuate catabolism and incomplete pathways for several additional monoaromatic compounds.
Highlights
We present the draft genome sequences of two isolates of the Roseobacter lineage, 3SOLIMAR09 and 1FIGIMAR09, which were obtained from harbors of Mallorca Island, Spain, and are affiliated with the Sulfitobacter genus
The catabolism of organic compounds, sulfur and carbon monoxide oxidation, and aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis are some important traits that can be found in this group [2,3,4]
The average nucleotide identity based on BLAST (ANIb) [8] suggested that strains 3SOLIMAR09 and EE-36 [9] belong to the same species (97.6% genome identity)
Summary
We present the draft genome sequences of two isolates of the Roseobacter lineage, 3SOLIMAR09 and 1FIGIMAR09, which were obtained from harbors of Mallorca Island, Spain, and are affiliated with the Sulfitobacter genus. The catabolism of organic compounds (including aromatic hydrocarbons), sulfur and carbon monoxide oxidation, and aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis are some important traits that can be found in this group [2,3,4]. Ͼ40 genomes have been sequenced, including two members of the Sulfitobacter genus (EE-36 and NAS-14.1). Strains 3SOLIMAR09 and 1FIGIMAR09 were isolated in March 2009 by plating surface water samples from the Sóller and Cala Figuera harbors (Mallorca Island, Spain), respectively, on marine agar [5].
