Draft Genome Sequence of Verrucosispora sp. Strain CWR15, Isolated from a Gulf of Mexico Sponge.

Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Verrucosispora sp. strain CWR15, a bacterial symbiont of a Gulf of Mexico sponge. The genome consists of 35 contigs encoding 5,840 genes. The genome is the basis for future study and presents an underexplored taxonomy and biosynthetic potential.
