Abstract
The Atacama Desert is home to bacteria that use biofilms as a means of protecting themselves against the harsh environment. We cultured and sequenced the genomes of three Bacillus sp. isolates from the soil of the Atacama Desert. This information will inform research in survival mechanisms of eubacteria in the Atacama Desert.
