Ochrobactrum genus is known to catabolize aromatic compounds. This study reports a complete genome sequence of Ochrobactrum sp. CPD-03 (similar to 4.6 Mb of chromosomal features) responsible for chlorpyrifos (CP) isolated form a paddy field (20.3588 degrees N, 85.8333 degrees E) in Bhubaneswar, India. A comparative genomics approach was performed between CPD-03 and eight closely related genomes of other Ochrobactrum strains in order to deepen our knowledge, to establish its phylogenetic and functional relationships. The involvement of CP degrading genes indicated a versatile role of CPD-03 in additional field trails. This research would provide the genetic information for its use in natural environment for the depletion of organophosphorus (OP) compounds.
