  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p> <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">Methylomicrobium</jats:named-content> strains are widespread in saline environments. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">Methylomicrobium alcaliphilum</jats:named-content> 20Z, a haloalkaliphilic methanotrophic bacterium, which will provide the basis for detailed characterization of the core pathways of both single-carbon metabolism and responses to osmotic and high-pH stresses. Final assembly of the genome sequence revealed that this bacterium contains a 128-kb plasmid, making <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">M. alcaliphilum</jats:named-content> 20Z the first methanotrophic bacterium of known genome sequence for which a plasmid has been reported. </jats:p>
