Complete Genome Sequence of Marinobacter flavimaris LMG 23834 ^T , Which Is Potentially Useful in Bioremediation

Abstract

The complete genome sequence of the halophilic strain Marinobacter flavimaris LMG 23834T is presented here. The genomic information of this type strain will be useful for taxonomic purposes and for its potential use in bioremediation studies.

Bioactive Molecules from Extreme Environments

“…Moreover, other bacteria belonging to the genus Marinobacteria and isolated from seawater and Nereus halocline have shown to be efficient for bioremediation purposes for degrading hydrocarbons, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as revealed by the complete genome sequence of Marinobacter flavimaris SW-145 [277][278][279][280]. Other strains belonging to the genera Vibrio, Pseudomonas, Arthrobacter Pseudoalteromonas, Idiomarina, Halomonas, and Thalassospira identified in different DHABs have been collected and cultured from marine sediments and are able to grow on PAHs including naphthalene, dibenzothiophene, pyrene, and phenanthrene [21,39,267,281,282].…”
