Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Francisella sp. Strain LA11-2445 (FDC406), a Novel Francisella Species Isolated from a Human Skin LesionHere, we present the 2,139,666-bp circular chromosome of Francisella sp. strain LA11-2445 (FDC406), a proposed novel species of Francisella that was isolated from a human cutaneous lesion and is related to Francisella species from marine environments.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Thelohania contejeani and Cucumispora dikerogammari, Pathogenic Microsporidia of Freshwater CrustaceansWe announce the draft genome sequences of two pathogenic microsporidia of European freshwater crustaceans, Thelohania contejeani (the causative agent of porcelain disease) and Cucumispora dikerogammari. Both species are implicated in mass mortalities in natural populations of their crayfish and...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Neonatal Clinical Group B Streptococcal Isolate CJB111Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is an asymptomatic colonizer of the female reproductive tract but can cause maternal and neonatal infections and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Here, we closed the genome sequence of strain CJB111, a neonatal GBS clinical isolate from a case of late-onset bacteremia without focus (Houston, TX; 1990).
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Two Marsupial Simplex Viruses, Macropodid Alphaherpesviruses 2 and 4We present the genome sequences of macropodid alphaherpesviruses 2 and 4, two closely related pathogens of macropods. Both encoded 68 nonredundant open reading frames (ORFs) and share 90.6% genome-wide nucleotide identity. These viruses are associated with fatal outbreaks of disease in multiple marsupial species. These sequences will be important for the development of new diagnostic tools.
Genome SequencesBK Polyomavirus Genotypes in Two Patients after Hematopoietic Cell TransplantBK polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection can lead to nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis (HC). We evaluated BKPyV genotypes in two individuals after hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). The first case developed HC and was infected with genotype Ib-2, while the second did not develop HC and was infected with genotype Ia.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas protegens Strain 11HC2, Isolated from Marine Plastic Collected from the West Coast of Norway...We report the draft genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas protegens strain 11HC2, isolated from polypropylene collected from a water column near a beach in Øygarden, Norway. The genome sequence is 6,861,219 bp in length, with a G+C content of 63.4%. Strain 11HC2 is resistant to cefotaxime, ampicillin, trimethoprim, and chloramphenicol.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Alistipes indistinctus Strain 2BBH45, Isolated from the Feces of a Healthy Japanese MaleThe genus Alistipes is one of the members of the human gut microbiota. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Alistipes indistinctus strain 2BBH45, harboring plasmid p2BBH45.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Mycobacterium abscessus Phage phiT46-1Mycobacteriophage phiT46-1 is a newly isolated Mycobacterium phage that was isolated by spontaneous release from Mycobacterium abscessus strain Taiwan-46 and infects M. abscessus strain BWH-C. Phage phiT46-1 is unrelated to previously described mycobacteriophages, has a 52,849-bp genome,...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Cytophagales sp. Strain WSM2-2, Isolated from Garden SoilWe report the draft genome sequence of the Cytophagales sp. strain WSM2-2, isolated from garden soil. A 5.5-Mb genome sequence comprising four contigs was successfully obtained using Illumina NovaSeq and MinION sequencers. This draft genome sequence will contribute to the genomic knowledge of the bacterial order Cytophagales.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Halomonas sp. Strain SH5A2, a Dye-Degrading Halotolerant Bacterium Isolated from the Salinas and Aguada Blanca National Reserve in PeruHalomonas sp. strain SH5A2 is a halotolerant bacterium isolated from Salinas Lake at 4,300 m above sea level in Peru. Here, we report its complete genome sequence with a length of 3,849,224 bp and highlight the presence of genes putatively related to dye degradation, such as NADPH-dependent oxidoreductases.
