Draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Hex1T strain, isolated from hydrocarbon-contaminated soil from Córdoba, Argentina.
Genomic libraries of P. aeruginosa Hex1T were prepared as described previously (Yang et al PNAS 2011) and sequenced on an Illumina Hiseq2000 platform, generating 100 base paired-end reads using a multiplexed protocol. The 4868724 obtained Illumina reads were de novo assembled using SPAdes software v. 3.5.0 (Nurk et al Research in Computational Molecular Biology 2013) and generated 674 large contigs (>1000 bp). The contig N50 is approximately 20.8 kb, and the largest contig assembled is approximately 128 kb. The draft sequence is 6,983,880 bases in length, with a mean G+C content of 66%.
