Genome sequencing of bacteria contributing to the geochemical cycling of arsenic, bromine, and iodine.

To understand the contribution of bacteria to the global biogeochemical cycles of chemical elements (arsenic, bromine, and iodine), we performed whole-genome shotgun sequencing on bacterial strains isolated from soils and marine sediments.
