Draft Genome Sequence and Annotation of the Halotolerant Carotenoid-Producing Strain Paracoccus bogoriensis BOG6 ^T

Abstract

Paracoccus spp. are Gram-negative, coccoid bacteria, fascinating for their ability to grow in highly diverse environments while producing commercially relevant products. This study describes the draft genome sequence of the halotolerant, alkaliphilic, and thermotolerant carotenoid-producing type strain Paracoccus bogoriensis BOG6 T .
