Ochrobactrum anthropi W13P3 was isolated from saline soil contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and could degrade PAHs with 5% NaCl. We report the 5.3-Mb draft genome sequence of this strain, which is helpful for understanding the diversity of Ochrobactrum spp. and the mechanism of PAH degradation in saline environments.
