Draft Genome Sequence of "Candidatus Moanabacter tarae," Representing a Novel Marine Verrucomicrobial Lineage.

ABSTRACT: The Tara Oceans Consortium has published various metagenomes of marine environmental samples. Here, we report a contig of 2.6 Mbp from the assembly of a sample collected near the Marquesas Islands in the Pacific Ocean, covering a nearly complete novel verrucomicrobial genome. We propose the name "Candidatus Moanabacter tarae" for the corresponding bacterium.
