Draft genome of <i>Marinobacter salsuginis</i> SSi115 isolated from the brown seaweed <i>Sargassum ilicifolium</i> in Singapore
<i>Marinobacter salsuginis</i> SSi115 was isolated from the brown macroalga <i>Sargassum ilicifolium</i>. Genome analysis revealed the presence of genes encoding a type VI secretion system involved in bacterial competition and host interactions. Genetic pathways for denitrification and hydrocarbon degradation are identified, indicating its potential role in bioremediation and biogeochemical cycling.
