Genome Sequences of Two Pseudomonas Isolates That Can Use Metformin as the Sole Nitrogen Source.

Metformin is a major water pollutant globally. We report the complete genome sequences of two pseudomonads, Pseudomonas sp. strain KHPS1 and Pseudomonas hydrolytica strain KHPS2, isolated from wastewater treatment plant sludge, which can grow on metformin as the nitrogen source. Both isolates contained ~80-kb plasmids that may contain metformin breakdown genes.
