Genome sequence of Blastococcus saxobsidens DD2, a stone-inhabiting bacterium

J Bacteriol. 2012 May;194(10):2752-3. doi: 10.1128/JB.00320-12.

Abstract

Members of the genus Blastococcus have been isolated from sandstone monuments, as well as from sea, soil, plant, and snow samples. We report here the genome sequence of a member of this genus, Blastococcus saxobsidens strain DD2, isolated from below the surface of a Sardinian wall calcarenite stone sample.
