Genome of a novel Sediminibacterium discovered in association with two species of freshwater cyanobacteria from streams in Southern California

Abstract

Here, we report the discovery of a novel Sediminibacterium sequenced from laboratory cultures of freshwater stream cyanobacteria from sites in Southern California, grown in BG11 medium. Our genome-wide analyses reveal a highly contiguous and complete genome (97% BUSCO) that is placed within sediminibacterial clades in phylogenomic analyses. Functional annotation indicates the presence of genes that could be involved in mutualistic/commensal relationship with associated cyanobacterial hosts.
