Draft genome of Pseudomonas sp. XK-1, a marine bacterium capable of degrading lignin and Mn(II) oxidation

We report the draft genome sequence of marine bacteria, Pseudomonas sp. XK-1. Strain XK-1 could facilitate Mn(II) oxidation with lignin as the sole carbon source. The genome length of XK-1 is 4,751,776 bp, with a G + C content of 62.61%. Genome analyses reveal the carbon and manganese cycling driven by bacteria.
