Abstract

Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus belongs to the family Bacillaceae and was first described in 2010 with the type strain L. xylanilyticus XDB9. It is able to both degrade xylan and use it as the sole carbon source. Here, we describe the 4.8-Mb genome of the strain L. xylanilyticus SR-86, which was isolated from organic waste.
