Abstract

ABSTRACT “ Candidatus Microthrix” bacteria are deeply branching filamentous actinobacteria which occur at the water-air interface of biological wastewater treatment plants, where they are often responsible for foaming and bulking. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of a strain from this genus: “ Candidatus Microthrix parvicella” strain Bio17-1.
