## TL;DR

This paper presents draft genome sequences of seven soil bacteria from the Bacillaceae family.

## Contribution

The study provides new draft genome assemblies for seven Bacillaceae isolates from woodland soil.

## Key findings

- Seven endospore-forming bacteria were isolated and their genomes sequenced.
- Draft genome sizes ranged from 3.65 to 5.97 million base pairs with GC content between 34.8% and 41.2%.

## Abstract

We isolated seven endospore-forming bacteria from campus woodland and sequenced their genomes using Illumina NextSeq. We share the draft genome assemblies for strains Bacillus wiedmanii_SC129, Bacillus pseudomycoides_SC131, Bacillus pumilis_SC133, Peribacillus butanolivorans_SC135, Bacillus thuringiensis_SC136, Priestia megaterium_SC138, and Bacillus wiedmanii_SC141. Draft genome sizes range from 3,645,032 to 5,969,865 bp, with GC content between 34.8% and 41.2%.
