Genome sequence of Tumebacillus flagellatus GST4, the first genome sequence of a species in the genus Tumebacillus

Abstract

We present here the first genome sequence of a species in the genus Tumebacillus. The draft genome sequence of Tumebacillus flagellatus GST4 provides a genetic basis for future studies addressing the origins, evolution, and ecological role of Tumebacillus organisms, as well as a source of acid-resistant amylase-encoding genes for further studies.
