Abstract

The Pontibacter bacterial genus has been detected in marine and soil environments. Here, we report the genome sequence of Pontibacter sp. strain SGAir0037, which was isolated from outdoor air samples collected in Singapore. The genome comprises one chromosome of 5.26 Mb and one plasmid of 127 kb.
