Draft Whole-Genome Sequence Of The Green Sulfur Photosynthetic Bacterium Chlorobaculum Sp. Strain 24cr, Isolated From The Carmel River

Green sulfur bacteria are in the family Chlorobiaceae, which is composed of four distinct genera, namely, Chlorobaculum, Chlorobium, Prosthecochloris, and Chloroherpeton, with Chlorobium species being the most commonly represented in genome studies. We have now sequenced only the fourth species of Chlorobaculum, which established Chlorobaculum sp. 24CR as a separate species and should help characterize the genus.
