Abstract

Bacillus megaterium strain SGAir0080 was isolated from a tropical air sample in Singapore. Its genome was assembled using single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing and MiSeq reads. It has one chromosome of 5.06 Mbp and seven plasmids (average length, 62.8 kbp). It possesses 5,339 protein-coding genes, 130 tRNAs, and 35 rRNAs.
