Hybrid Genome Assemblies of Marine Bacteria Isolated from the Sponge Sycon capricorn

Sponges have complex relationships with bacteria, the roles of which include food, important components of the holobiont, pathogens, and accidentally accumulated elements of the environment. Consequently, sponges are reservoirs of microbial genomes and novel compounds. Therefore, we isolated and sequenced the whole genomes of bacterial species from the calcareous sponge Sycon capricorn.
