We report the 5.3-Mbp genome sequence of Bacillus cereus strain TS2, which was isolated from the sediments of a solar saltern in southern India. Genome analysis of B. cereus TS2, a salt-resistant strain, will improve our understanding of how B. cereus, a food pathogen, responds to hyperosmotic stress.
