A halophilic Chromohalobacter species from estuarine coastal waters as a detoxifier of manganese, as well as a novel bio-catalyst for synthesis of n-butyl acetate

Draft genome sequence of Halomonas sp. SSL-5, a halophilic Mn(II)-oxidizing, perchlorate-tolerant bacterium

Halomonas sp. SSL-5 is a Mn(II)-oxidizing, perchlorate-tolerant halophilic bacterium isolated from an Australian hypersaline lake. The genome sequence contains 27 contigs, and the genome is 3.4 Mb with a GC content of 67.2%. The sequence provides information for future studies of Mn(II) oxidation and perchlorate resistance under halophilic conditions.
