Genome SequencesCoding-Complete Genome Sequences of Two SARS-CoV-2 Isolates from Early Manifestations of COVID-19 in IsraelWe announce the genome sequences of two strains of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) isolated in Israel, one imported by a traveler who returned from Japan and the second strain collected from a patient infected by a traveler returning from Italy. The sequences obtained are valuable as early manifestations for future follow-up of the local spread of the virus in Israel.
Genome SequencesTranscriptome Sequencing Reveals the Genome Sequence of Pea Early Browning Virus from a 29-Year-Old Faba Bean SamplePea early browning virus (PEBV) is transmitted by soil-inhabiting trichodorid nematodes and via seeds. The transcriptome sequencing method, followed by de novo assembly, revealed the PEBV Libyan isolate LyV66-91 genome. Its RNA1 resembled that of UK isolate SP5 with 93.91% nucleotide identity, and its RNA2 had 63.32% nucleotide identity to that of Dutch isolate E116.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of a Soybean Dwarf Virus Isolate from White Clover in GermanyIn this study, we present the complete genome of a new isolate of soybean dwarf virus (SbDV) (genus Luteovirus, family Luteoviridae) from white clover in Germany. The complete genome of the isolate (JKI ID 23556) consists of 5,858 nucleotides and displays 94.98% nucleotide identity to its most similar SbDV relative (GenBank accession number MN412736).

Genome SequencesCoding-Complete Genome Sequence of SARS-CoV-2 Isolate from Bangladesh by Sanger SequencingA coding-complete genome sequence of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) isolate was revealed. The sample for the virus was isolated from a female patient from Dhaka, Bangladesh, suffering from coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19).
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Seven Strains of Dickeya dadantii, a Quick Decline-Causing Pathogen in Fruit Trees, Isolated in JapanThe plant-pathogenic bacterium Dickeya dadantii causes quick decline in fruit trees (e.g., apple, Japanese pear, and peach). In this study, we report on the draft genome sequences of seven strains of D. dadantii that were isolated from fruit trees with typical quick decline symptoms in Japan.

Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas nitrititolerans Strain AGROB37, Isolated from a Sheep Dairy Farm in New ZealandWe report the draft genome sequence of a new Pseudomonas nitrititolerans strain, AGROB37, isolated from a sheep dairy farm environment in New Zealand. The genome is 4.19 Mbp long, with a GC content of 63.2%. The genome sequence was found to be closely related to that of the type strain Pseudomonas nitrititolerans GL14.
Genome SequencesCoding-Complete Genome Sequence of a Black Queen Cell Virus Isolate from Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) in ItalyIn this study, we documented the complete coding genome sequence of a Black queen cell virus (BQCV) isolate from honey bees in Italy. This genome sequence illustrates a high similarity with other BQCV isolates reported worldwide and could provide insights into BQCV genome phylogeny and divergence.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Stenotrophomonas pavanii Strain MHSD12, a Bacterial Endophyte Associated with Dicoma anomalaStenotrophomonas pavanii strain MHSD12 is an endophyte isolated from Dicoma anomala surface-sterilized leaves. Here, we report its draft genome sequence (4.3 Mb) assembled to 30 contigs, with 3,923 protein-coding genes. The genome sequence highlights important genes for an endophytic lifestyle....
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Colistin-Resistant Escherichia coli CLR8, Isolated from the Feces of Larus argentatusMigratory birds are potential vehicles of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, a colistin-resistant Escherichia coli strain, CLR8, was isolated from the feces of Larus argentatus. The draft genome sequence of the strain indicated that it hosts mcr-1, which is a plasmid-mediated...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequences of Two Marine Biofilm Isolates, Leisingera sp. nov. Strains 201A and 204H, Novel Representatives of the Roseobacter GroupHere, we report the complete-genome assemblies of biofilm isolates 201A and 204H. They possess six and seven plasmids, respectively, with a size ranging from 44 kb to 159 kb. Genomic comparisons place the two strains into one new species belonging to the genus Leisingera as novel representatives of the Roseobacter group.
