Whole-genome sequence data and analysis of type strains ' Pusillimonas nitritireducens' and ' Pusillimonas subterraneus' isolated from nitrate- and radionuclide-contaminated groundwater in Russia.

Two strains, ' Pusillimonas nitritireducens' JR1/69-2-13T and ' Pusillimonas subterraneus' JR1/69-3-13T , of aerobic, motile, Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, organotrophic, psychrotolerant bacteria were isolated from a sample of nitrate- and radionuclide-contaminated groundwater in Russia. Here we describe the draft genomes of these strains. The sequenced and annotated genome of the strain JR1/69-2-13T contained 4.3 Mbp with 4108 protein-coding genes. The genome of the strain JR1/69-3-13T contained 4.5 Mbp with 4260 protein-coding genes. Genome analysis of both strains provides an insight into the genomic basis of their resistance to nitrate, heavy metals and metalloids. The draft genome sequences of strains ' Pusillimonas nitritireducens' JR1/69-2-13T and ' Pusillimonas subterraneus' JR1/69-3-13T are available at DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession nos. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/PDNV00000000 and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/PDNW00000000, respectively.
