Genome Sequence of Halomonas sp. Strain MS1, a Metallophore-Producing, Algal Growth-Promoting Marine Bacterium Isolated from the Green Seaweed Ulva mutabilis (Chlorophyta)

We report the draft genome sequence of the marine gammaproteobacterium Halomonas sp. strain MS1, isolated from the green seaweed Ulva mutabilis (Chlorophyta), which releases metallophores fostering macroalga-bacterium interactions. The 4.6-Mbp sequence, which was obtained using PacBio technology, harbors 4,166 predicted coding sequences, including gene clusters for siderophore production.
