Abstract
Sagittula sp. SSi028 was isolated from the globally distributed brown alga Sargassum ilicifolium, which is the most abundant seaweed in Singapore. Its genome contains genes for two dimethylsulfoniopropionate assimilation pathways, degradation of lignin-related aromatic compounds, biosynthesis of multiple vitamin Bs, and luxI-luxR homologs associated with quorum sensing.
