Abstract
ABSTRACT
A strain of
Agarivorans
sp., named OAG1, predicted to be capable of degrading agar, was isolated from the Sea of Japan. Its 4.7 Mbp genome with 4,224 predicted protein-coding genes offers insight into the varied genes responsible for agar degradation, as observed in the comparative genomic study of
Agarivorans
species.
