Abstract

We report the genome of Phormidium yuhuli AB48, which includes a circular chromosome and a circular plasmid (4,747,469 bp and 51,599 bp, respectively). This is currently the only closed reference genome of an isolate of the Phormidium genus, based on the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB), providing a potential model system for sustainable biotechnology innovation.
