Genome SequencesA Metagenomic Approach Identified a Novel Phasi Charoen-Like Virus Coinfecting a Chikungunya Virus-Infected Aedes aegypti Mosquito in BrazilInsect-specific viruses do not replicate in vertebrates. Here, we report the genome sequence of a novel strain of a Phasi Charoen-like virus (PCLV) that was isolated from a wild Aedes aegypti mosquito collected in Aracajú, Sergipe State, Brazil. The coding-complete genome of the PCLV is described in this report.
Genome SequencesWhole-Genome Sequences of Two New Caballeronia Strains Isolated from Cryoturbated Peat Circles of the Permafrost-Affected Eastern European TundraAnnotated genomes of Caballeronia strains SBC1 and SBC2 from acidic permafrost suggest a new species with a facultative lifestyle via oxygen and nitrate respiration. Thus, a contribution to nitrogen cycling in cold and low-pH environments is anticipated.
Genome SequencesHigh-Quality Draft Genome Sequences of the Uncultured Delta3 Endosymbiont (Deltaproteobacteria) Assembled from Metagenomes of the Gutless Marine Worm Olavius algarvensisHere, we present two high-quality, draft metagenome-assembled genomes of deltaproteobacterial OalgDelta3 endosymbionts from the gutless marine worm Olavius algarvensis. Their 16S rRNA gene sequences share 98% identity with Delta3 endosymbionts of related host species Olavius ilvae (GenBank accession no. ...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of SARS-CoV-2 Strains Detected in Hong KongWe sequenced severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genomes from deep throat saliva samples of three imported cases in Hong Kong by Nanopore sequencing. Epidemiological and clinical features of these coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases were presented for genomic epidemiology studies.
Genome SequencesReports of Coding-Complete Genome Sequences of Five 2019 Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) Strains Isolated in BangladeshThis study determined five coding-complete genome sequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains isolated from oropharyngeal swab specimens of Bangladeshi patients who were diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and had no travel history.
Genome SequencesSARS-CoV-2 Genome Sequence from Morocco, Obtained Using Ion AmpliSeq TechnologyThis study describes a genome sequence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) sampled from a male patient with SARS-CoV-2 who was likely infected in Casablanca, Morocco.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus sp. Strain RZ2MS9, a Multitrait Plant Growth PromoterHere, we report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus sp. strain RZ2MS9, a plant growth-promoting bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere of guarana, a native crop from Amazonas, Brazil. The assembled genome comprises 5.35 Mbp, no plasmids, and a GC content of 35.22%.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Lactobacillus plantarum Strain K03D08 and Acetobacter syzygii Strain K03D05, Isolated from a Kefir Beverage Collected in ChileKefir is an ancestral food produced using microbial consortia whose composition varies depending on the geographical origin and the substrate used for fermentation. This dairy beverage is considered a probiotic food, and its consumption has been associated with several health benefits. This report describes the isolation of bacterial strains from Chilean kefir.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa Strains Isolated from the International Space StationThe whole-genome sequences (WGS) of 28 isolates from the International Space Station were generated and identified as Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, a pigmented yeast that has been classified as an emerging human pathogen in recent times. These WGS enable the identification of genes responsible for synthesizing compounds with biological implications.
