Alcaligenes fecalis BDB4 was isolated from crude oil-contaminated soil in India. The genome sequence of A. faecalis BDB4 revealed the presence of important genes required for polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolism and other associated functions, such as chemotaxis, membrane transport, and biofilm formation, giving insight into the complete PAH mineralization potential of this bacterium.
