Genome analysis of a halophilic bacterium Halomonas malpeensis YU-PRIM-29T reveals its exopolysaccharide and pigment producing capabilities

Abstract Halomonas malpeensis strain YU-PRIM-29T is a yellow pigmented, exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing halophilic bacterium isolated from the coastal region. To understand the biosynthesis pathways involved in the EPS and pigment production, whole genome analysis was performed. The complete genom...
