Filamentous cyanobacteria
Filamentous cyanobacteria Desertifilum sp. SVMIICT2 grown in Bolds Basal Medium (BBM) was used as nutritional source pH of the medium is 8.2; exponentially growing cells were inoculated to (BBM) finalOD of the experimental culture around 0.1 to 0.2 at 720nm. White fluorescent bulbs with low light intensity 50 E/sec/m 2 - photo period of 12h light 12h dark, ambient room temperature 25 o C, rotationsper minute (Rpm) 120 used for cultivation of Desertifilum sp. SVMIICT2. Well grown cells at 6 th day harvested and washed twice with double distilled water, pellet used for genomic DNA isolation throughNucleoSpin Plant II Midi. The draft genome of Filamentous cyanobacteria Desertifilum sp. SVMIICT2 was sequenced, assembled by next generation sequencing - Illumina Nextseq 500
