Abstract

The study presents the whole genome sequence of the carotenoid-producing Paracoccus sp. NFXS7, isolated from a marine saltern in Setúbal, Portugal. The carotenoid-producing strain NFXS7 contains homologs of the crt genes involved in astaxanthin biosynthesis, making it a promising candidate for biotechnological applications.
