Abstract
Gillisia limnaea Van Trappen et al. 2004 is the type species of the genus Gillisia, which is a member of the well characterized family Flavobacteriaceae. The genome of G. limnea R-8282(T) is the first sequenced genome (permanent draft) from a type strain of the genus Gillisia. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the permanent-draft genome sequence and annotation. The 3,966,857 bp long chromosome (two scaffolds) with its 3,569 protein-coding and 51 RNA genes is a part of the GenomicEncyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Keywords: Flavobacteriaceae; GEBA; aerobic; chemoheterotrophic; microbial mat; moderately halotolerant; motile; proteorhodopsin; psychrophilic; rod-shaped; yellow-pigmented
