Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of a Novel Marine Anaerobic Ammonium-Oxidizing Bacterium, “Candidatus Scalindua sp.”A novel anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacterium was detected in an upflow column reactor treating synthetic nitrogen-rich saline solution. Here, we assembled a 4.59-Mb draft genome sequence of this bacterium, identified as a member of the genus “Candidatus Scalindua,” that has 84% nucleotide-level genomic similarity with the closest related anammox bacterium (“Candidatus Scalindua rubra”).
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of the Aerobic Facultative Methanotroph Methylocella tundrae Strain T4Methylocella tundrae T4T is a facultative aerobic methanotroph which was isolated from an acidic tundra wetland and possesses only a soluble methane monooxygenase. The complete genome, which includes two megaplasmids, was sequenced using a combination of Illumina and Nanopore technologies.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, Leishmania (Leishmania) mexicana, and Leishmania (Leishmania) aethiopica, Potential Etiological Agents of Diffuse Cutaneous LeishmaniasisWe present here the draft genome sequences of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, Leishmania (Leishmania) mexicana, and Leishmania (Leishmania) aethiopica, potential...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Rice Tungro Bacilliform Virus Infecting Asian Rice (Oryza sativa) in MalaysiaRice tungro disease was discovered in Malaysia in the 1930s. The first and only genome of Rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) isolated from rice in Malaysia was sequenced in 1999.
Genome SequencesComplete Genomic Sequence of an Australian Sindbis Virus Isolated 44 Years Ago Reveals Unique Indels in the E2 and nsP3 ProteinsThe complete genome sequence of a Sindbis virus (SINV) strain (SINV_AUS_1975_18953) isolated in Australia in 1975 from Culex annulirostris mosquitoes revealed unique deletions in amino acid positions 182 to 184 and 201 to 228 of the E2 envelope protein and multiple indels in the nonstructural protein 3 (nsP3).
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Enterococcus faecalis Strain CECT7121, a Corn Silage Isolate with Antibacterial Activity against Gram-Positive PathogensEnterococcus faecalis CECT7121 is a corn silage probiotic bacterium that shows antibacterial activity against Gram-positive pathogens from different origins. Its genome sequence is 2.9 Mb long with a G+C content of 37.3%.
Genome SequencesSingle-Scaffold Genome Sequence of Probiotic Strain Bifidobacterium breve BR03 (DSM 16604), Obtained by Combining Hybrid Sequencing and Optical MappingBifidobacterium breve BR03 (DSM 16604) is known for its health-promoting activity. We present a single-scaffold genome obtained by using a hybrid approach combining long- and short-read sequencing techniques integrated by an optical map.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas koreensis Strain AB36, Isolated from Gold Mining SoilHere, we report the draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas koreensis strain AB36, isolated from gold mining soil in South Africa. The draft sequence consists of 5,902,614 bp, with a G+C content of 60.1% and 5,242 protein-coding genes.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Apricot Pseudo-Chlorotic Leaf Spot Virus from Prunus persica in South KoreaThe complete genome sequence of Apricot pseudo-chlorotic leaf spot virus (APCLSV) isolate YC2, a South Korean isolate, was determined. The complete genome sequence was 7,491 nucleotides long and has a poly(A) tail.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Amphirosellinia nigrospora JS-1675, an Endophytic Fungus from Pteris creticaThe fungus Amphirosellinia nigrospora strain JS-1675 has been reported to exert antimicrobial effects against various plant-pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of A. nigrospora for the first time.
