Whole-genome sequences of two novel chitinolytic bacterial strains within the genera Streptomyces and Pseudomonas

Key Points

• To characterize two novel chitinolytic bacterial strains through whole-genome sequencing.
• Isolated strains from soil samples using chitin-amended Winogradsky medium.
• Conducted whole-genome analyses to determine sizes and G + C content.
• Strain Streptomyces sp. CLCI03 has a genome size of 8.68 Mb and G + C content of 71.75%.
• Strain Pseudomonas sp. CLCA07 has a genome size of 6.73 Mb and G + C content of 58.53%.
• Both strains are proposed as putative novel species based on genomic data.
