Here we report the draft genome sequence of Chitinophaga costai A37T2(T) (=CIP 110584(T), =LMG 27458(T)), which was isolated from the endophytic community of Pinus pinaster tree. The total genome size of C. costaii A37T2(T) is 5.07 Mbp, containing 4204 coding sequences. Strain A37T2(T) encoded multiple genes likely involved in cellulolytic, chitinolytic and lipolytic activities. This genome showed 1145 unique genes assigned into 109 Cluster of Orthologous Groups in comparison with the complete genome of C. pinensis DSM 2588(T). The genomic information suggests the potential of the strain A37T2(T) to interact with the plant metabolism. As there are only a few bacterial genomes related to Pine Wilt Disease, this work provides a contribution to the field.
