Draft Genome Sequence Of Novosphingobium Sp. Strain Hii-3, A Bacterium Capable Of Degrading The Cembranoid Alpha(Beta)-2,7,11-Cembratriene-4,6-Diol To Farnesal

Novosphingobium sp. HII-3, the first bacterium confirmed to degrade the cembranoid alpha(beta)-2,7,11-cembratriene-4,6-diol to farnesal, was isolated from cured tobacco leaf in Henan, China. Here, we report the annotated draft genome sequence of strain HII-3, which has an estimated size of 4.45 Mb and comprises 4,072 coding sequences.
