Genome Sequences of Two Cyanobacterial Strains, Toxic Green Microcystis aeruginosa KW (KCTC 18162P) and Nontoxic Brown Microcystis sp. Strain MC19, under Xenic Culture Conditions.

ABSTRACT: Bloom-forming cyanobacteria pose concerns for the environment and the health of humans and animals by producing toxins and thus lowering water quality. Here, we report near-complete genome sequences of two Microcystis strains under xenic culture conditions, which were originally isolated from two separate freshwater reservoirs from the Republic of Korea.
