Draft Genome Sequence of the Model Naphthalene-Utilizing Organism Pseudomonas putida OUS82

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas putida OUS82 was isolated from petrol- and oil-contaminated soil in 1992, and ever since, it has been used as a model organism to study the microbial assimilation of naphthalene and phenanthrene. Here, we report the 6.7-Mb draft genome sequence of P. putida OUS82 and analyze its featured pathways for biodegradation.
