## TL;DR

This paper presents the full genome sequence of a Pseudomonas strain that can break down carbon tetrachloride in the presence of oxygen.

## Contribution

The study provides the complete genome sequence of a novel carbon tetrachloride-degrading Pseudomonas strain.

## Key findings

- The genome is a single circular sequence of 6,310,573 bp with 5,680 coding sequences.
- The strain has a GC content of 60.3% and 94.06% average nucleotide identity to its closest species.

## Abstract

This article reports on the complete genome of Pseudomonas sp. strain Stari2, which was shown to have the ability to degrade carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in aerobic conditions. A single circular sequence of 6,310,573 bp, a GC content of 60.3%, and 5,680 coding sequences were obtained. In silico analysis revealed an average nucleotide identity of 94.06% to its closest species.

## Linked entities
