Abstract

The draft genome sequence of the green filamentous anoxygenic phototrophic (FAP) bacterium "Candidatus Viridilinea halotolerans" strain Chok-6, isolated from a cold saline sulfide-rich spring near Lake Chokrak, is presented. The genome sequence is annotated for elucidation of the taxonomic position of Chok-6 and to extend the public genome database.
