title: Genome sequence of Thalassospira xiamenensis type strain M-5.
abstract: Thalassospira xiamenensis M-5(T) was isolated from the surface water of a waste oil pool at the oil storage dock in the city of Xiamen, Fujian Province, China. Here, we present the draft genome of strain M-5(T), which contains 4,705,237 bp with a G+C content of 54.65% and contains 4,343 protein-coding genes and 46 tRNA genes.
