ABSTRACT

Nocardioides luteus strain BAFB is a Gram-positive bacterium that efficiently degrades C 8 to C 11 alkanes aerobically. The draft genome of N. luteus BAFB is 5.76 Mb in size, with 5,358 coding sequences and 69.9% G+C content. The genes responsible for alkane degradation are present in this strain.
