Draft Genome Sequences of Two Pseudomonas Strains That Are Able To Use Furan Derivatives as Their Sole Carbon Source

Microbiol Resour Announc. 2020 Jan 9;9(2):e01131-19. doi: 10.1128/MRA.01131-19.

Abstract

Pseudomonas sp. strains ALS1279 and ALS1131 were isolated from wastewater treatment facilities on the basis of their ability to use furfural, a key lignocellulose-derived inhibitor, as their only carbon source. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of both strains, which can shed light on catabolic pathways for furan compounds in pseudomonads.
