Abstract

We present the metagenome-assembled genome sequences of two polyvinyl alcohol-degrading co-colony-derived bacterial species relative to Rhodanobacter sp. DHB23 and Priestia megaterium ATCC 14581. We estimated the genomes of these species to be 3,476,996- and 5,169,587-bp long (for Rhodanobacter sp. DHB23 and Priestia megaterium ATCC 14581, respectively).

Keywords: pollutant; polymers; polyvinyl alcohol; symbiosis.
