## TL;DR

This paper presents seven high-quality genome sequences of Ralstonia bacteria from forest soils, providing insights into their genetic makeup.

## Contribution

The study provides new high-quality draft genomes of Ralstonia species using hybrid and long-read assembly methods.

## Key findings

- Seven Ralstonia genomes were sequenced with high completeness (minimum 92.6%).
- The genomes have an average GC content of 63.45%.
- Both hybrid and long-read assembly methods were used to generate the sequences.

## Abstract

We report seven highquality draft genomes of Ralstonia spp. isolated from the Harvard Forest Long-Term Warming Experimental plots: four de novo hybrid assemblies and three de novo long-read assemblies. The genomes have a minimum estimated completeness of 92.6% and an average GC content of 63.45%.
