Draft Genome Sequence of Paenibacillus elgiiB69, a Strain with Broad Antimicrobial Activity

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Paenibacillus elgiiB69, which was isolated from soil and has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. As far as we know, the P. elgiigenome is the largest of the Paenibacillusgenus for which genome sequences are available. Multiple sets of genes related to antibiotic biosynthetic pathways have been found in the genome.
