Complete genome sequence of <i>Pseudalkalibacillus</i> sp. Hm43 isolated from marine sponge <i>Haliclona caerulea</i> in the coral reef
ABSTRACT We report the complete genome sequence of Pseudalkalibacillus sp. Hm43 isolated from marine sponge Haliclona caerulea in Guangxi coral reef, China. The genome consists of a circular chromosome (3,739,586 bp; guanine-cytosine [GC] content: 43.4%), including three GH18 chitinase genes. Strain Hm43 exhibits exochitinase and endochitinase activities.
