Abstract

The magnetotactic bacterium Magnetospirillum sp. strain XM-1 was recently isolated from the Xi'an City moat, China. It belongs to the Rhodospirillaceae family in the Alphaproteobacteria class. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of XM-1. The genome contains a single circular chromosome of 4,825,187 bp and a plasmid of 167,290 bp.
