| Abstract: |
Here, we report the draft genome sequences of nine bacterial isolates obtained after laboratory incubation of seawater, soil, and wastewater samples with polylactic acid, polyethylene, or polyethylene terephthalate film for 2 weeks. Assuming colonization as a prerequisite of degradation, these strains could contribute to a solution to the global plastic waste problem. |
