Genome Sequence of Dehalobacter sp. Strain TeCB1, Able To Respire Chlorinated Benzenes

Ricardo Alfán-Guzmán et al. Genome Announc. .

Abstract

Dehalobacter sp. strain TeCB1 was isolated from groundwater contaminated with a mixture of organohalides and is able to respire 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene. Here, we report its 3.13-Mb draft genome sequence.
