Draft Genome Sequence of Lysinibacillus sp. Strain BPa_S21, Isolated from Petroleum-Contaminated Soil in Delta State, Nigeria

Lysinibacillus sp. strain BPa_S21 was isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil in Nigeria. Here, we present the draft genome sequence, consisting of a 4,813,249-bp genome with 4,666 protein-coding sequences, 4,580 functionally assigned genes, and 74 RNA genes. An average nucleotide identity-based whole-genome comparison suggests that this is a novel species within the Lysinibacillus genus.
