Draft genome of <i>Sagittula</i> sp. SSi028 isolated from the brown alga <i>Sargassum ilicifolium</i> in Singapore
<i>Sagittula</i> sp. SSi028 was isolated from the globally distributed brown alga <i>Sargassum ilicifolium</i>, which is the most abundant seaweed in Singapore. Its genome contains genes for two dimethylsulfoniopropionate assimilation pathways, degradation of lignin-related aromatic compounds, biosynthesis of multiple vitamin Bs, and <i>luxI-luxR</i> homologs associated with quorum sensing.
