Draft Genome Sequence of <i>Alcaligenes faecalis</i> Strain IITR89, an Indole-Oxidizing Bacterium

Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of Alcaligenes faecalis strain IITR89, a bacterium able to form indigo by utilizing indole as the sole carbon source. The Alcaligenes species is increasingly reported for biodegradation of diverse toxicants and thus complete sequencing may provide insight into biodegradation capabilities and other phenotypes.
