Here, we report the draft genome sequences of six marine strains isolated from plastic samples incubated in the Mediterranean Sea. Genomic analyses place these strains within the Alkalihalobacillus, Bacillus, Halomonas, and Marinobacter genera. Examining the genomes of these non-typical environmental bacteria increases our comprehension of microorganism biology and their potential uses.
Keywords: Mediterranean Sea; marine bacteria; plastic degradation.
