Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Six Bacteria Isolated from the Benham Bank, Philippine Rise, PhilippinesWe report here the draft genome sequences of six bacteria isolated from the near-bottom waters and surface sediments of the Benham Bank, Philippine Rise, Philippines. These genome sequences represent candidate novel species and/or strains from the families Flavobacteriaceae and Dermacoccaceae and...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Luteibacter pinisoli MAH-14Diverse strains of Luteibacter (Gammaproteobacteria) have been isolated from a variety of environments, most frequently in association with both plants and fungi. Motivated by the lack of genomic information for strains throughout the genus Luteibacter, we report here a complete genome...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Staphylococcus aureus Siphophage SebagoHere, we introduce the genome of Sebago, a 43,878-bp siphophage that infects Staphylococcus aureus. Sebago carries 70 proteins and is most closely related to StauST398, a Phietavirus.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Six Flavobacterium psychrophilum Strains Isolated from Dead Juvenile Ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis) near the Mouth of the Nahari River, Kochi, JapanFlavobacterium psychrophilum causes bacterial cold-water disease in ayu inhabiting clear rivers in Japan. In this study, we report the draft genome sequences of six F. psychrophilum strains isolated from the gills and skin of dead juvenile ayu near the mouth of the Nahari River.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of the Novel Klebsiella pneumoniae Phage MarfaHere, we describe the complete genome sequence of the T4-like Klebsiella pneumoniae myophage Marfa. In its 168,532-bp genome, Marfa has 289 genes, for which 122 gene functions were predicted. Many similar proteins are shared between Marfa and phage T4, as well as its closest phage relatives.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Serratia marcescens Myophage MoabiteSerratia marcescens is a Gram-negative nosocomial pathogen causing various hospital-acquired infections. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of S. marcescens myophage Moabite. The genome of Moabite is 273,933 bp long, with 337 predicted coding sequences and two tRNA genes, and it shares...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Green- and Brown-Colored Strains of Chlorobium phaeovibrioides with Gas VesiclesThe draft genomes of green-colored Chlorobium phaeovibrioides GrKhr17 and brown-colored Chlorobium phaeovibrioides BrKhr17, green sulfur bacteria with gas vesicles isolated from Lake Bolshye Khruslomeny, are presented. These sequences contribute to genomic analyses of the ...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Thermodesulfovibrio sp. Strain Kuro-1, a Thermophilic, Lactate-Degrading Anaerobe Isolated from a Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion ReactorThermodesulfovibrio sp. strain Kuro-1, newly isolated from a thermophilic anaerobic digestion reactor, is a thermophilic anaerobe that can utilize l-lactic acid in fermentation, sulfate respiration, and cocultivation with hydrogenotrophic methanogens. Here, we report its draft genome sequence, consisting of a 1.93-Mb sequence with a G+C content of 34.0%.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Geotoga petraea Strain HO-Geo1, Isolated from a Petroleum Reservoir in Russia...The draft genome sequence of Geotoga petraea strain HO-Geo1, a bacterium isolated from production water of the Vostochno-Anzirskoe petroleum reservoir in Russia, is presented. The genome of strain HO-Geo1 is annotated for elucidation of the metabolic potential and its possible function in the subsurface microbial community and biotechnological application.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of the Moderately Halophilic Yellow Sea Bacterium Lentibacillus salicampi ATCC BAA-719TLentibacillus salicampi SF-20T (=ATCC BAA-719T) was first isolated from a Yellow Sea salt field in Korea in 2002. Here, we report that the L. salicampi ATCC BAA-719T genome sequence has a predicted length of 3,897,716 bp, containing 3,945 total genes and a CRISPR array, with a G+C content of 43.0%.
