Whole-genome shotgun sequencing of the extremophile Alkalibacillus haloalkaliphilus C-5, of Indian origin.

ABSTRACT

Alkalibacillus haloalkaliphilus C-5 is a haloalkaliphilic bacterium that was isolated from a soil sample from the salty Sambhar Lake, Rajasthan, India. The organism is capable of alkaline protease production under conditions of pH 10 and 10% (wt/vol) salt. We sequenced and have reported the whole genome of Alkalibacillus haloalkaliphilus C-5, of Indian origin, for the first time.
