- Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Erwinia psidii, Causal Agent of Bacterial Blight of Guava (Psidium guava) and Dieback of Eucalypt (Eucalyptus spp.)
Here, we present a draft genome sequence of the type strain IBSBF 435 of Erwinia psidii (Enterobacteriaceae), a phytopathogen that causes bacterial blight on guava (Psidium guava) and dieback and wilt on eucalypt (Eucalyptus spp.), both of which are important emerging diseases....
- Genome SequencesNear-Complete Genome Sequence of Infectious Bronchitis Virus Strain VFAR-047 (GI-16 Lineage), Isolated in Peru
Here, we report the near-complete genome sequence of the infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) strain VFAR-047, isolated in Peru in 2014. This strain was classified into GI lineage 16 (GI-16) based on both the genome and Spike 1 (S1) sequence analysis.
- Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of an N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone Producer, Breoghania sp. Strain L-A4, Isolated from Rhizosphere of Phragmites australis in a Coastal Wetland
The Breoghania sp. strain L-A4 was isolated from the rhizosphere of Phragmites australis in the Qinhaungdao coastal wetland in China.
- Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus crispatus CO3MRSI1
Lactobacillus crispatus is a commonly found bacterium in vertebrate microbiota, particularly the human vagina. We report the first complete genome of a strain isolated from a human vagina, L. crispatus CO3MRSI1.
- Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224, a Host for Bacteriophage Discovery
We report the complete annotated genome sequence of Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224, a type strain isolated from the phyllosphere of grasses and a commonly used host for bacteriophage discovery. The genome contains no identifiable prophage or CRISPR or restriction-modification system, which suggests that it may continue to be a fruitful host for phage discovery...
- Genome SequencesNearly Complete Genome Sequence of a Human Norovirus GII.P17-GII.17 Strain Isolated from Brazil in 2015
Human noroviruses are the most common cause of nonbacterial acute gastroenteritis worldwide. We report here the nearly complete genome sequence (7,551 nucleotides) of a human norovirus GII.P17-GII.17 strain detected in July 2015 in the stool sample from an adult with acute gastroenteritis in Brazil.
- Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of a Clostridium botulinum Isolate from Thailand Harboring the Subtype bont/B8 Gene
In 2010, a Clostridium botulinum type B isolate was recovered from fermented soybeans during a foodborne botulism investigation. Molecular investigation of the botulinum neurotoxin (bont) gene operon determined that the sequence was a new subtype, denoted B8.
- Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Enterococcus faecalis NVIT04, Isolated from Nasonia vitripennis
Enterococcus faecalis is a Gram-positive, lactic acid-producing coccus which can be found as a member of the gut microbiome in many animal species and is a potential pathogen in humans. Here, we describe the genome sequence of an E. faecalis strain isolated from the gut microbiome of the...
- Genome SequencesComplete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of the Phytopathogenic Basidiomycete Ganoderma boninense Strain G3
Here, we report the complete sequence of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of Ganoderma boninense that assembled as a single circular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) of 86,549 bp with a G+C content of 26.81%. Genome annotation identified genes that encode 15 conserved proteins, 27 tRNAs, small and large...
- Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of the Marine Bacterium Alteromonas sp. Strain KS69
Alteromonas spp. are Gram-negative, aerobic, marine bacteria. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Alteromonas sp. strain KS69, isolated from Narragansett Bay deep water samples. Unpublished preliminary data suggest that KS69 reduces expression of the 3-oxo-C12-HSL-dependent, virulence-...
