Genome Sequence of Sphingomonas sp. Strain PAMC 26605, Isolated from Arctic Lichen (Ochrolechia sp.)

The endosymbiotic bacterium Sphingomonas sp. strain PAMC 26605 was isolated from Arctic lichens (Ochrolechia sp.) on the Svalbard Islands. Here we report the draft genome sequence of this strain, which could provide further insights into the symbiotic mechanism of lichens in extreme environments.
