Abstract
Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Bacillus sp. strain MHSD28 which was sequenced, and assembled with a total length of 5,571,729 bp. The genome has 43 contigs, the largest contig with 1,785,042 bp, N(50) of 1,474,247 bp, G + C% content of 35.23%. The strain was isolated from surface sterilized leaves of Dicoma anomala, obtained in Limpopo province, South Africa. The genome has 5792 total genes which include 5701 protein coding sequences (CDS), 192 pseudogenes, 7 rRNA genes with 3 operons (5S, 16S and 23S), 79 tRNA genes and 5 noncoding RNA (ncRNA) genes. This whole genome shotgun project has been deposited in DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under accession number VHIV00000000. The version described in this paper is version VHIV01000000.
