Rhodopseudomonas palustris is known for its versatile metabolic capabilities and has been proposed for a wide range of innovative applications. Here, we report the genome sequence of strain XCP, as well as a whole-genome nucleotide comparison of R. palustris strains, which indicates the need for further differentiation of the known strains.
