We used Illumina MiSeq technology to sequence the whole genome of Desulfocarbo indianensis SCBM, a new genus of sulfate-reducing bacteria isolated from a coal bed in Indiana, USA. This draft genome represents the first sequenced genome of the genus Desulfocarbo and the second known genome of the order Desulfarculales.
