Draft Genome Sequences of Five Environmental Bacterial Isolates That Degrade Polyethylene Terephthalate Plastic

Here, we report the annotated draft genome sequences of three Pseudomonas spp. and two Bacillus spp. that, as consortia, degrade polyethylene terephthalate plastic. Improved microbial degradation of plastic waste could help reduce the billions of metric tons of these materials that currently exist i...
