Abstract

We present the draft whole-genome sequences of Pseudogracilibacillus spp. isolated from the soils and sediments of Sipit Creek located at Mount Makiling, a dormant volcano in the southern part of Luzon Island, Philippines. This Pseudogracilibacillus spp. genome report extends the body of knowledge on a lesser-known genus of Bacillaceae.
