Sediments in cryoconite holes and meltwater streams in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, provide both substrates and conditions that support life in an arid polar desert. Here, we report the genomic sequences of eight environmental, bacterial isolates from Canada Glacier cryoconite holes and stream. These isolates span three major phyla.

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in Antarctic inland waters is unique in that its precursor molecules are microbially derived and lack the chemical signature of higher plants. Here, we report the genomic sequences of seven environmental, bacterial isolates from Pony Lake, Antarctica, to explore the genetic potential linked to DOM processing.
