Abstract

We present here the draft genome sequences of six Vibrio diazotrophicus strains, which were isolated from deep subseafloor sediments of the Baltic Sea. The genomic sequences contained several virulence and antibiotic resistance genes. These genome sequences provide insights into the genetic composition and evolution of the genus Vibrio in marine environments.
