# Complete genome sequence of Idiomarina sp. PL1-037 isolated from the pink hypersaline Pearse Lakes, Rottnest Island, Western Australia

## TL;DR

This paper presents the complete genome sequence of a new Idiomarina species isolated from a hypersaline lake in Western Australia.

## Contribution

The study provides the first complete genome sequence of Idiomarina sp. PL1-037, an extremophile from the Pearse Lakes.

## Key findings

- The genome consists of a single chromosome with 2,804,934 base pairs.
- The GC content of the genome is 47.1%.
- The isolate offers insights into culturable extremophiles from the Pearse Lakes microbiome.

## Abstract

Idiomarina sp. PL1-037 was isolated from Pearse Lakes, Rottnest Island, Western Australia. The sequenced completed genome for PL1-037 is composed of a single chromosome (2,804,934  bp) with a GC content of 47.1%. Isolation of Idiomarina sp. PL1-037 provides insights about culturable extremophiles from the Pearse lakes microbiome.
