Metagenome-assembled genomes of two salt-tolerant methylotrophs enriched from a sulfur-rich Zodletone spring in Oklahoma, USA

We obtained metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of two salt-tolerant methylotrophic bacteria, Methylohalobius sp. strain ZOD2 and Methyloligella sp. strain ZOD6, from an enrichment culture derived from sediment collected at a sulfur-rich spring in Oklahoma, USA. These MAGs offer insights into the methane oxidation capabilities of these bacteria under high-salinity conditions.
