title: Draft genome sequence ofBacillus oleroniusDSM 9356 isolated from the termiteReticulitermes santonensis.
abstract: Bacillus oleroniusstrain DSM 9356 isolated from the termiteReticulitermes santonensiswas sequenced to gain insights in relation to its closest phylogenetic neighborBacillus sporothermodurans. The draft genome of strain DSM 9356 contains 5,083,966 bp with an estimated G + C content of 35%, 4899 protein-coding genes, 116 tRNAs and 18 rRNAs. The RAST annotation assigned these genes into 462 subsystems, with the maximum number of genes associated with amino acids and derivatives metabolism (14.84%), followed by carbohydrates (13.89%) and protein metabolism subsystems (9.10%). The draft genome sequence and annotation has been deposited at NCBI under the accession number MTLA00000000.
