Draft Genome Sequence of the Extremely Halophilic Bacterium Halomonas Salina Strain CIFRI1, Isolated from the East Coast of India

Abstract

Halomonas salina strain CIFRI1 is an extremely salt-stress-tolerant bacterium isolated from the salt crystals of the east coast of India. Here we report the annotated 3.45-Mb draft genome sequence of strain CIFRI1 having 86 contigs with 3,139 protein coding loci, including 62 RNA genes.
