Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Bacterium within the Family Rhodocyclaceae That Degrades Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

ABSTRACT: A polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium designated strain Ca6, a member of the family Rhodocyclaceae and a representative of the uncharacterized pyrene group 1 (PG1), was isolated and its genome sequenced. The presence of several genes suspected to be associated with PG1 was confirmed, and additional genes for aromatic compound metabolism were detected.
