Abstract

Here we introduce draft genomes of three methanotrophs belonging to the Methylococcaceae, a family of typically fast-growing methane oxidizers. Methylobacter sp. Wu1, Methylomicrobium sp. Wu6, and Methylobacter sp. Wu8 were cultured from the top sediment collected from a shore of a eutrophic fishpond in the southern Czech Republic.

Keywords: Methylobacter; Methylomicrobium; aquaculture; methane oxidation.
