Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of 12 Mycolicibacterium smegmatis Strains Resistant to Imidazo[1,2-b][1,2,4,5]Tetrazines...Here, we report 12 draft genome sequences of mutant Mycolicibacterium smegmatis strains resistant to imidazo[1,2-b][1,2,4,5]tetrazines, which are antituberculosis drug candidates. We have identified 7 different mutations in the MSMEG_1380 gene, which encodes the AcrR/TetR_N transcriptional repressor, which may activate efflux-mediated resistance.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Achromobacter spanius UQ283, a Soilborne Isolate Exhibiting Plant Growth-Promoting PropertiesAchromobacter spanius UQ283 is a soilborne bacterium found to exhibit plant growth-promoting and disease-suppressing attributes in several plant species. Accordingly, we used long-read sequencing to determine its complete genome sequence.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Two Glycoalkaloid-Degrading Arthrobacter Strains Isolated from Green Potato PeelHere, we report the genome sequences of two Arthrobacter sp. strains isolated from potato and capable of degrading the toxic potato-derived glycoalkaloids (GAs) α-chaconine and α-solanine. Information from the genome sequences will provide insight into the genetic mechanism of GA degradation by these isolates.
Genome SequencesResequencing the Genome of Malassezia restricta Strain KCTC 27527The draft genome sequence of Malassezia restricta KCTC 27527, a clinical isolate from a patient with dandruff, was previously reported. Using the PacBio Sequel platform, we completed and reannotated the genome of M. restricta KCTC 27527 for a better understanding of the genome of this fungus.
Genome SequencesNear-Complete Genome Sequence of a Human Norovirus GII.P7-GII.6 Strain Detected in a Maryland Patient in 2018Genomic recombination is a crucial mechanism used to generate genetic variation in human noroviruses. Recombinant variants have been increasingly identified and have contributed to sporadic cases and epidemic outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis globally.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Microviruses Associated with Coptotermes formosanusTermites have a unique ability to effectively digest lignocellulose with the help of mutualistic symbionts. While gut bacteria and protozoa have been relatively well characterized in termites, the virome remains largely unexplored.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Paraburkholderia sp. UYCP14C, a Rhizobium Strain Isolated from Root Nodules of Calliandra parvifoliaHere, we present the draft genome sequence of strain UYCP14C, a rhizobium isolated from Calliandra parvifolia nodules. The assembled genome size was around 9.8 million bp, containing 9,031 predicted protein-coding sequences, including several symbiotic and nitrogen fixation genes.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Multidrug-Resistant Enterococcus faecium Strain E1298, with a Sequence Type 1274 Profile, Recovered from the Cloacal Microbiome of a Tropical Screech Owl (Megascops choliba) in Rio de Janeiro, BrazilHere, we present the draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium strain E1298, a representative of the clonal complex 17 (CC17), identified as sequence type 1274 (ST1274) and resistant to multiple classes of antimicrobials, isolated from the cloaca of a tropical screech owl (Megascops choliba) in...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Bordetella pertussis Vaccine Strain BP 165Whole-cell and acellular pertussis vaccines are used globally against Bordetella pertussis. Various vaccine reference strains are used globally for the production of such vaccines.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of a Bioactive Pseudomonas sp. Strain, DTU12.3, Isolated from Soil in DenmarkHere, we report the complete annotated genome sequence of a Pseudomonas sp. strain, DTU12.3. It was isolated from leaf-covered soil in Denmark and potentially has bioactivity against certain plant pathogens.
