Draft genomes of multidrug-resistant Providencia manganoxydans strains isolated from shrimp (Penaeus monodon) in Bangladesh.

Providencia manganoxydans is gaining interest in aquaculture for its manganese-oxidizing function, with possible roles in detoxifying water and enhancing shrimp health. We initially report the genome sequencing of P. manganoxydans strains BD001 and BD002 (4.7 Mbp each) isolated from shrimp, with 40.7% and 40.0% GC contents, and 80× and 130× sequencing depths, respectively.
