Other Genetic ResourcespSETT4, an Improved φC31-Based Integrative Vector System for Actinoplanes sp. SE50/110The pSETT4 vector integrates into the Actinoplanes sp. SE50/110 chromosome via the bacteriophage φC31 integrase and allows cloning of a gene of interest by Golden Gate assembly (BsaI). T4 terminators surround the expression cassette to isolate the transcriptional unit and to prevent antisense transcription. The system can be used in other Actinomycetales by exchanging the promoter.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Oenococcus oeni OE37, an Autochthonous Strain Isolated from an Italian White WineOenococcus oeni OE37 is an autochthonous strain that was isolated from a Chardonnay wine from Piedmont (Italy) during spontaneous malolactic fermentation. Here, the OE37 genome sequence is presented, and a brief description of the main genes is reported.
Genome SequencesA Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza A Virus Isolated from a Flamingo on the Caspian Sea ShoreIn 2015, in the Kazakh part of the northern Caspian Sea region, during the monitoring of wild birds for avian influenza viruses, a highly pathogenic A/flamingo/Mangistau/6570/2015(H5N1) influenza virus was isolated from a dead flamingo. This study aimed to obtain the complete genome sequence of the isolate.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequences of Lactobacillus Strains C25 and P38, Isolated from Chicken CecumWe report the complete circular genome sequences of Lactobacillus crispatus strain C25, its plasmid, and Lactobacillus animalis strain P38; both strains were isolated from the cecum of 4-week-old chickens. These isolates represent potential probiotic strains for poultry.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of 171 Listeria monocytogenes Isolates from Food-Related Listeriosis Outbreaks in California from 2007 to 2017This publication reports the availability of draft genome sequences of 171 Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from various food-related sources from California between 2007 and 2017. All isolates contain at least two antimicrobial resistance genes.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Strain CBC-LR1, Isolated from Homemade Dairy Foods in BulgariaHere, we report the draft genome sequence of Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain CBC-LR1, which was isolated from naturally processed, homemade dairy foods in Bulgaria. The genome was assembled in 29 contigs with a total length of 2,892,155 bp and a GC content of 46.7%. Genome annotation predicted 2,638 coding genes and 49 tRNA genes.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of 38 Bacteriophages Infecting Escherichia coli, Isolated from Raw SewageHere, we report the complete genome sequences of 38 novel bacteriophages infecting Escherichia coli, isolated from a raw sewage source in Washington. Of these phages, 26 are under 100 kb, 11 are near 170 kb, and 1 352-kb jumbo phage was discovered.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Vesicular Stomatitis Indiana Viruses from the 2019 Outbreak in the Southwest United StatesWe report the genomes of three vesicular stomatitis Indiana virus (VSIV) isolates collected from naturally infected bovines in Wyoming and Colorado during the 2019 outbreak in the United States. These genomes support molecular diagnostic efforts and provide data on the spread and ecology of VSIV in the United States.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of 20 Aspergillus flavus Isolates from Corn Kernels and Cornfield Soils in LouisianaAspergillus flavus is a common saprophyte and opportunistic fungal pathogen that infects plants, animals, and humans. It also produces numerous toxic and nontoxic secondary metabolites. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 20 A. flavus isolates, belonging to 16 vegetative compatibility...
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Microcystis aeruginosa FD4, Isolated from a Subtropical River in Southwest FloridaWe report the first complete genome of Microcystis aeruginosa from North America. A harmful bloom that occurred in the Caloosahatchee River in 2018 led to a state of emergency declaration in Florida. Although strain FD4 was isolated from this toxic bloom, the genome did not have a microcystin biosynthetic gene cluster.
