Draft Genome Sequences of Nine Environmental Bacterial Isolates Colonizing Plastic
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACT Here, we report the draft genome sequences of nine bacterial isolates obtained after laboratory incubation of seawater, soil, and wastewater samples with polylactic acid, polyethylene, or polyethylene terephthalate film for 2 weeks. Assuming colonization as a prerequisite of degradation, these strains could contribute to a solution to the global plastic waste problem.
