Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of a Putative Prokaryotic Consortium (IPPAS B-1204) Consisting of a Cyanobacterium (Leptolyngbya sp.) and an Alphaproteobacterium (Porphyrobacter sp.)A new presumably simple consortium of a Leptolyngbya sp. and a Porphyrobacter sp. was isolated from Tolbo Lake in Mongolia. The draft genome sequences of both species are reported.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus plantarum CRL681, Isolated from Argentinean Artisanal Fermented SausagesLactobacillus plantarum CRL681 was isolated from Argentinean artisanal fermented sausages. Here, the draft genome sequence of the CRL681 strain is described.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Tomato Leaf Curl New Delhi Virus from Luffa in IndonesiaThis is the first report of a begomovirus infecting luffa in Indonesia. The genome of this virus shares a close identity with that of Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV).
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Two Staphylococcus warneri Clinical Isolates, Strains SMA0023-04 (UGA3) and SMA0670-05 (UGA28), from Siaya County Referral Hospital, Siaya, KenyaWe report the complete draft genome sequences of two Staphylococcus warneri clinical isolates, strains SMA0023-04 (UGA3) and SMA0670-05 (UGA28), each of which contains one chromosome and at least one plasmid. Isolate SMA0023-04 (UGA3) contains tetracycline efflux major facilitator superfamily (MFS) transporter (tetK), macrolide resistance (msrC and...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Abscisic Acid-Metabolizing Rhizobacterium Rhodococcus sp. Strain P1YMechanisms of microbial catabolism of phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) are still unknown. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of ABA-utilizing Rhodococcus sp.
Genome SequencesImproved Draft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas poae A2-S9, a Strain with Plant Growth-Promoting ActivityWe report here the improved draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas poae strain A2-S9, a bacterium that was originally isolated from switchgrass plants and exhibited the capacity for plant growth promotion. Its genome has a size of 6.68 Mbp and a GC content of 61.3%.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of 48 Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecium Strains Isolated from Inpatients with Bacteremia and Urinary Tract InfectionVancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) is a major cause of nosocomial infections of the bloodstream and urinary tract. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 48 vancomycin-resistant E. faecium isolates recovered from inpatients exhibiting clinical signs of bacteremia at the...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of an Ehrlichia minasensis Strain Isolated from CattleEhrlichia minasensis is a tick-borne pathogen affecting cattle, cervids, and dogs, and it is closely related to the monocytotropic pathogen Ehrlichia canis. Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of Ehrlichia minasensis strain Cuiabá, isolated from a naturally infected calf from Santo...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Bacteriophage Ray17Bacteria belonging to the genus Bacillus and their cognate viruses are easily found in the environment. Soil sampled from Rockingham County, VA, yielded the bacteriophage Ray17, which was isolated on Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.
Culture Collections/Mutant LibrariesThe Mastitis Pathogens Culture CollectionThe Mastitis Pathogen Culture Collection contains more than 16,000 mastitis-causing bacterial isolates from milk samples taken from cow quarters and bulk tanks in a national cohort of 91 dairy farms across Canada over a period of 2 years. These isolates are linked to demographic and production data that were recorded at the mammary gland, cow, and farm levels.
