Draft genomes from uncultured Thiohalocapsa sp. PB-PSB1 and uncultured Desulfofustis sp. PB-SRB1 from the study "Microscale sulfur cycling in the pink berry consortia of the Sippewissett salt marsh"

The pink berries are macroscopic, photosynthetic microbial aggregates composed primarily of two closely associated species: sulfide-oxidizing purple sulfur bacteria (uncultured Thiohalocapsa sp. PB-PSB1) of the family Chromatiaceae and sulfate reducing bacteria (uncultured Desulfofustis sp. PB-SRB1) from the Desulfobulbacaea.  This dataset consists of the near-complete draft genomes for these two bacterial species.  Annotations provieded here were generated by RAST.

These genomes were obtained by binning assembled metagenomic data associated with ncbi bioproject: PRJNA214436.  Genomes annotation data presented here was generated by the RAST automated annotation pipeline with frame-shift correction (http://rast.nmpdr.org).  Full description of the methods used to generate this data and analysis of these genomes has been provided in the publication  "A sulfurous symbiosis: microscale sulfur cycling in the pink berry consortia of the Sippewissett salt marsh" (Wilbanks, et al. in preparation).
