Draft Genome Sequences of Clostridium Strains Native to Colombia with the Potential To Produce Solvents

ABSTRACT Genomes from four Clostridium sp. strains considered to be mesophilic anaerobic bacteria, isolated from crop soil in Colombia, with a strong potential to produce alcohols like 1,3-propanediol, were analyzed. We present the draft genome of these strains, which will be useful for developing genetic engineering strategies.
