Abstract
ABSTRACTDeinococcus sp. strain UR1, a resilient bacterium isolated from the surface of a stainless steel sign located on the University of Regina campus in Saskatchewan, Canada, was sequenced to 56-fold coverage to produce 73 contigs with a consensus length of 4,472,838 bp and a G+C content of 69.37%.

Deinococcus sp. strain UR1, a resilient bacterium isolated from the surface of a stainless steel sign located on the University of Regina campus in Saskatchewan, Canada, was sequenced to 56-fold coverage to produce 73 contigs with a consensus length of 4,472,838 bp and a GϩC content of 69.37%
We report the whole-genome sequencing of Deinococcus sp. strain UR1, an environmental strain isolated during surface sampling of a stainless steel sign at the University of Regina (GPS coordinates, 50.415981, Ϫ104.594733)
UR1 average nucleotide identity using BLASTϩ (ANIb) values were all below the 95% sequence identity species threshold
