Two genome sequences of the phylum Armatimonadetes , derived from terrestrial environments, have been previously described. Here, two additional Armatimonadetes genome sequences were obtained via single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing of an enrichment culture of the bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis sp. isolated from a eutrophic lake (Brandenburg, Germany). The genomes are most closely affiliated with the class Fimbriimonadales , although they are smaller than the 5.6-Mbp type strain genome.
