Whole-genome sequencing of an axenic <i>Achromobacter</i> sp. strain PD1 reveals genomic potential for cyanophycin production
This study reports the whole-genome sequence of <i>Achromobacter</i> sp. strain PD1, isolated from a wastewater treatment bioreactor. Using Illumina and Nanopore sequencing, a complete genome of 6,994,232 bp was obtained. This genome contains genes predicted to encode a complete pathway for cyanophycin synthesis, a candidate for nitrogen recovery from wastewater.
