Draft Genome Sequence of Bacillus wiedmannii Biovar thuringiensis ZZQ-138, Isolated from a Saline Lake

Abstract

Ecologically sound approaches to control mosquitoes like Anopheles stephensi , which are obligatory vectors for malaria transmission, are urgently needed because of increasing insecticide resistance. Bacteria from Bacillus are important resources. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of Bacillus wiedmannii biovar Thuringiensis ZZQ-138, which was isolated from sediment from a saline lake.
