Abstract

Cupriavidus alkaliphilus ASC-732T was isolated from the rhizosphere of agave plant growing in alkaline soils in San Carlos, Tamaulipas, Mexico. The species is able to grow in the presence of arsenic, zinc, and copper. The genome sequence of strain ASC-732T is 6,125,055 bp with 5,586 genes and an average G+C content of 67.81%.
