Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Bacillus cereus TN10, a Chromium-Resistant and -Reducing Strain Isolated from Tannery EffluentHere, we present the draft genome sequence of Bacillus cereus strain TN10, which exhibited chromium resistance and chromium-reducing ability. The whole-genome sequence analysis of strain TN10 will help us to understand its genetic factors involved in the bioremediation of Cr6+.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequencing of a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Isolate Obtained from a South African Patient with Coronavirus Disease 2019As a contribution to the global efforts to track and trace the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, here we present the sequence, phylogenetic analysis, and modeling of nonsynonymous mutations for a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genome that was detected in a South African patient with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Listeria monocytogenes Serovar 1/2a Strain IZSAM_Lm_14-16064, Isolated from an Italian Cooked Ham in 2014In this report, the draft genome sequence of Listeria monocytogenes serovar 1/2a strain IZSAM_Lm_14-16064, isolated in Italy from a cooked ham, is announced. The genome is similar to that of a clinical strain isolated in 2014.

Amplicon Sequence CollectionsSequences of Endophytic Fungal and Bacterial Communities from Araucaria araucana [(Molina) K. Koch, 1869] in the Coastal and Andes Mountain Ranges, ChileHere, we report the results from PCR and sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA and fungal internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) genes from needle, branch, trunk, and root samples of Araucaria araucana, plus soil and associated insects, collected along the entirety of its geographic distribution in Chile (January 2017 and 2018).
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Cyclic Lipopeptide Producer Pseudomonas sp. Strain SWRI103, Isolated from Wheat RhizosphereThe draft genome sequence of wheat rhizosphere isolate Pseudomonas sp. strain SWRI103 is reported. This strain carries several gene clusters encoding nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs), including a system for cyclic lipopeptide (CLP) production, and genes for carotenoid biosynthesis.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of a Baboon Simian Foamy Virus Isolated from an Infected HumanWe obtained the full-length genome of a simian foamy virus (SFV) from an infected human. This virus originated from a baboon (Papio species, strain SFVpxx_hu9406). The genome is 13,113 nucleotides long with the canonical SFV genome structure. Phylogenetically, SFVpxx_hu9406 clustered closely with SFVpan_V909/03F from a captive baboon and other Cercopithecidae SFVs.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of a New Oscillospiraceae Bacterium Isolated from Anaerobic Digestion of BiomassHere, we present the genome sequence and annotation of the novel bacterial strain HV4-5-C5C, which may represent a new genus within the family Oscillospiraceae (order Eubacteriales). This strain is a potential keystone species in the hydrolysis of complex polymers during anaerobic digestion of biomass.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Agrobacterium fabrum ARqua1Agrobacterium fabrum ARqua1 is a hybrid of Agrobacterium fabrum C58C bearing the megaplasmid pRiA4b. ARqua1 is used by many plant researchers to generate transgenic roots. The draft genome of ARqua1 includes a 249,350-bp contig that likely covers all of pRiA4b, and it will be a valuable resource to...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Alkalicoccus halolimnae BZ-SZ-XJ29T, a Moderately Halophilic Bacterium Isolated from a Salt LakeThe moderate halophile Alkalicoccus halolimnae BZ-SZ-XJ29T grows optimally in a relative broad range of 8.3% to 12.3% (wt/vol) NaCl. The draft genome consists of approximately 3.66 Mb and contains 3,534 putative genes. Various genes involved in osmotic stress were predicted, providing pertinent insights into specific adaptations to the hypersaline...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of wBp, the Wolbachia Endosymbiont of Brugia pahangi FR3Lymphatic filariasis is a devastating disease caused by filarial nematode roundworms, which contain obligate Wolbachia endosymbionts. Here, we assembled the genome of wBp, the Wolbachia endosymbiont of the filarial nematode Brugia pahangi, from Illumina, Pacific Biosciences, and Oxford Nanopore data. The complete, circular genome is 1,072,...
