Draft Genome Sequence Of Bacillus Pumilus Fairview, An Isolate Recovered From A Microbial Methanogenic Enrichment Of Coal Seam Gas Formation Water From Queensland, Australia

Despite its global abundance, Bacillus pumilus is poorly studied. The Fairview strain was obtained from a methanogenic anaerobic coal digester. The draft genome sequence was 3.8 Mbp long and contained 3,890 protein-coding genes. Like the SAFR-032 strain, it includes B. pumilus-specific proteins that likely confer enhanced resistance to environmental stresses.
