Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. oryzae 1_6Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. oryzae 1_6 was originally isolated as a phytopathogen of rice. Here, we report a complete genome sequence for this strain, containing a circular chromosome and one circular plasmid, assembled using a hybrid approach combining Illumina paired-end reads and longer reads sequenced on an Oxford Nanopore Flongle flow cell.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of 20 Bacteriophages Isolated on Gordonia terraeWe report here the sequences of 20 bacteriophages isolated on Gordonia terrae 3612. These phages span considerable sequence diversity, represent 12 clusters and a singleton genome, and range in genome length from 16.2 kbp to 151.3 kbp. Phages Pupper and SCentae are the first reported Myoviridae...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Bacterial Strains Capable of Degrading Ulvan from the Green Alga Ulva ohnoiWe present here the draft genome sequences of four marine bacterial strains which can use ulvan as their sole carbon source. We used ulvan extracted from the green alga Ulva ohnoi. Each bacterium contains a polysaccharide-utilizing locus, which is necessary for the complete degradation of ulvan.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of a New Clostridium sp. Isolated from Anaerobic Digestion and BiomethanationHere, we present the genome sequence and annotation of the bacterial strain HV4-5-A1G, a potentially new Clostridium species. Based on its genomic data, this strain may act as a keystone microorganism in the hydrolysis of complex polymers, as well as in the different acidogenesis and acetogenesis steps during anaerobic digestion.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Collection Strain Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC BAA-1790, Used as a Model To Study the Antibiotic Resistance Reversion Induced by Iodine-Containing Complexes...The strain Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC BAA-1790 was sequenced as a model for nosocomial multidrug-resistant infections. Long-read PacBio sequencing revealed a circular chromosome of 3,963,235 bp with two horizontally transferred genomic islands and a 67,023-bp plasmid. Multiple antibiotic resistance genes and genome methylation patterns were identified.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Lignin-Degrading Arthrobacter sp. Strain RT-1, Isolated from Termite Gut and Rumen FluidHere, we report the genome sequence of Arthrobacter sp. strain RT-1, isolated from a cocktail of termite gut and rumen fluid. Strain RT-1 degrades a variety of lignin monomers and dimers as the growth substrates. The genome annotation predicted the genes necessary for the catabolism of lignin-derived aromatic compounds.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Desulfofundulus thermobenzoicus subsp. thermosyntrophicus DSM 14055, a Moderately Thermophilic Sulfate ReducerHere, we describe the genome of Desulfofundulus thermobenzoicus subsp. thermosyntrophicus DSM 14055, a member of the Clostridiales that is capable of sulfate reduction coupled to the oxidation of propionate, lactate, pyruvate, and H2/CO2. This genome expands our...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Acidianus ambivalens DSM 3772, an Aerobic Thermoacidophilic Sulfur DisproportionatorHere, we describe the genome sequence of Acidianus ambivalens DSM 3772, an archaeon belonging to the Sulfolobales order that was first isolated from continental solfataric fields. This thermoacidophile was sequenced because it utilizes a unique sulfur disproportionation pathway that enables this...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae Strain TK421, a Conjugative Hypervirulent IsolateKlebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacterium that is a major cause of nosocomial infections worldwide. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of TK421, a clinical bacteremia isolate containing a hypervirulence plasmid carrying tra-associated conjugation machinery genes. Emergence of conjugative hypervirulence plasmids could portend rapid...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas chlororaphis subsp. aurantiaca ARS-38, a Bacterial Strain with Plant Growth Promotion Potential, Isolated from the Rhizosphere of Cotton in PakistanStrain ARS-38 is a potential plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium that exhibits antifungal properties. Here, we report a 6.6-Mb draft genome, which gives insight into the complete secondary metabolite production capacity and reveals genes putatively responsible for its antifungal activity, as well as genes which contribute to plant growth promotion.
