Draft Whole-Genome Sequence of the Green Sulfur Photosynthetic Bacterium sp. Strain 24CR, Isolated from the Carmel River.

Green sulfur bacteria are in the family , which is composed of four distinct genera, namely, , , , and , with species being the most commonly represented in genome studies. We have now sequenced only the fourth species of , which established sp. 24CR as a separate species and should help characterize the genus.
