Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Salmonella enterica Myophage MatapanHere, we describe the Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg phage Matapan. A myophage with a 157,408-kb genome, Matapan is most closely related to Vi01-like phages.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Pantoea sp. Strain CCBC3-3-1, an Antagonistic Endophytic Bacterium Isolated from a Cotinus coggygria BranchPantoea sp. strain CCBC3-3-1, having antagonistic activity against Verticillium dahlia, was isolated from Cotinus coggygria. We report the complete genome sequence of this strain determined by PacBio single-molecule real-time (...
Genome SequencesFoot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Serotype A Genome Sequence from Kenya in 2016We report the genome sequence of a foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype A topotype Africa isolate collected from bovine vesicular epithelium from Kenya in 2016. This novel sequence updates the knowledge of FMDV diversity in eastern Africa and has important implications for FMDV epidemiology and molecular analyses.
Genome SequencesIdentification of the Coding-Complete Genome of Cycas Necrotic Stunt Virus in Transcriptomic Data Sets of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa)We present evidence here that alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) can be a natural host species for a new strain of Cycas necrotic stunt virus (CNSV), for which the name CNSV-A (alfalfa) is proposed. Prior to this report, the virus has not been identified in alfalfa.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequences of Four Salmonella enterica Strains Associated with Pistachios Assembled Using a Combination of Short- and Long-Read SequencingHere, we report the genomes of two Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Montevideo strains (CFSAN005645 and FCC0123) and two Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Senftenberg strains (FSW0104 and CFSAN087304...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Streptomyces sp. Strain AM-2504, Identified by 16S rRNA Comparative Analysis as a Streptomyces kasugaensis StrainWe report here the draft genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. strain AM-2504, a microorganism producing a broad range of biotechnologically relevant molecules. The comparative analysis of its 16S rRNA sequence allowed the assignment of this strain to the Streptomyces kasugaensis species, thus fostering functional characterization of the secondary metabolites...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Escherichia coli DSM 12242, a Highly Efficient Host Strain for the Isolation of Somatic ColiphagesHere, we report the draft genome sequence and characterization of the commercial strain Escherichia coli DSM 12242 (=ATCC 13706/60 =NZRM 3262) derived from strain C (ATCC 13706), which is suitable for the isolation of coliphages from environmental and clinical samples.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of the Griseofulvin-Producing Fungus Xylaria flabelliformis Strain G536The draft genome of the ascomycete fungus Xylaria flabelliformis (previously known as Xylaria cubensis) was sequenced using Illumina paired-end technology. The assembled genome is 41.2 Mb long and contains 11,404 genes. This genome will contribute to our understanding of X. flabelliformis...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of 11 Conspecific Streptomyces sp. StrainsThe genomes of 11 conspecific Streptomyces strains, i.e., from the same species and inhabiting the same ecological niche, were sequenced and assembled. This data set offers an ideal framework to assess the genome evolution of Streptomyces species in their ecological context.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Multidrug-Resistant Proteus mirabilis CKTH01, Isolated from Raw Chicken MeatProteus mirabilis CKTH01 is a pathogenic bacterium isolated from raw chicken meat. The genome sequence of P. mirabilis CKTH01 contains genes encoding multidrug efflux pumps, which are the virulence factors of the antibiotic-resistant bacterium. This 3.98-Mb draft genome sequence of...
