Phosphorus Removing (EBPR) Sludge Community

DNA was obtained from the enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) sludge community from Thornside Sewage Treatment Plant in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. This analysis allowed for the determination of the near complete genome of Acinetobacter phosphatis, the principal agent in acetate-fed EBPR. The fully annotated version of this assembly can be found in www.jgi.doe.gov/m under 'microbiomes' and the 'sludge/Australian phrap assembly' heading.
