Abstract

We report draft genomes of five bacteria recovered from the U.S. and Russian water systems onboard the International Space Station. The five genera include Ralstonia, Burkholderia, Cupriavidus, Methylobacterium, and Pseudomonas. These sequences will help further the understanding of water reclamation and environmental control and life support systems in space.
