Rickettsiales -like organisms are important for the survival and functioning of corals, prompting an investigation of their complete genomes. Earlier reports of the genomes of these organisms remain incomplete. Here, we report a novel draft genome of Rickettsiales bacterial strain SESOKO1, found in Acropora tenuis coral, using single-cell genome technology.
