Draft Genome Sequence of Psychrotolerant Shewanella sp. Strain VB17, Isolated from Marine Intertidal Sediment near Virginia Beach, Virginia

Abstract

We present the draft genome sequence of Shewanella sp. strain VB17, which was isolated from Virginia Beach, Virginia, intertidal sediment. The 5.2-Mb genome sequence of VB17 will be useful to study the basis for seasonal low-temperature growth and eventual taxonomic classification of the species.
