title: Genome sequence of pectin-degrading Alishewanella agri, isolated from landfill soil.
abstract: Alishewanella agri BL06(T) (= KCTC 22400(T) = JCM 15597(T)) was isolated from landfill soil in Pohang, South Korea. A. agri showed the ability to degrade pectin, a structural heteropolysaccharide present in the cell wall of plants. Here we report the genome sequence of Alishewanella agri BL06(T), the second sequenced strain in the genus Alishewanella.
