title: Draft Genome Sequence of Kocuria rhizophila RF, a Radiation-Resistant Soil Isolate.
abstract: Kocuria rhizophila RF, a soil isolate from Iran, is a radiation-resistant bacterium. Only a limited amount of genomic information for radiation-resistant bacteria is currently available. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of this bacterium, providing knowledge to aid in the discovery of the genomic basis of its resistance to radiation.
