title: Complete genome sequence of Bacillus sp. YP1, a polyethylene-degrading bacterium from waxworm's gut.
abstract: Bacillus sp. strain YP1, isolated from the gut of waxworm (the larvae of Plodia interpunctella) which ate polyethylene (PE) plastic, is capable of degrading PE and utilizing PE as sole carbon source. Here we report the complete genome sequence of strain YP1, which is relevant to polyethylene depolymerization and biodegradation.
