title: Complete genome sequence of the biofilm-formingMicrobacteriumsp. strain BH-3-3-3, isolated from conventional field-grown lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in Norway.
abstract: The genusMicrobacteriumcontains bacteria that are ubiquitously distributed in various environments and includes plant-associated bacteria that are able to colonize tissue of agricultural crop plants. Here, we report the 3,508,491 bp complete genome sequence ofMicrobacteriumsp. strain BH-3-3-3, isolated from conventionally grown lettuce (Lactuca sativa) from a field in Vestfold, Norway. The nucleotide sequence of this genome was deposited into NCBI GenBank under the accession CP017674.
