Abstract

"Candidatus Synechococcus spongiarum" represents the widespread cyanobacterial symbionts found in marine sponges with relatively high genomic variability and likely important ecological roles. We present here the draft genome sequence of "Candidatus Synechococcus spongiarum" m9, which was assembled from a metagenome of Theonella swinhoei sampled in the South China Sea.
