High-quality complete and draft genome sequences for three Escherichia spp. and three Shigella spp. generated with Pacific Biosciences and Illumina sequencing and optical mapping.

Escherichia spp., including E. albertii and E. coli, Shigella dysenteriae, and S. flexneri are causative agents of foodborne disease. We report here reference-level whole-genome sequences of E. albertii (2014C-4356), E. coli (2011C-4315 and 2012C-4431), S. dysenteriae (BU53M1), and S. flexneri (94-3007 and 71-2783)..

Complete genome sequence of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis G50 with immunostimulating activity, isolated from Napier grass.

Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis G50 is a strain with immunostimulating activity, isolated from Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum). We determined the complete genome sequence of this strain using the PacBio RS II platform. The single circular chromosome consists of 2,346,663?bp, with 35.03% G+C content and no plasmids.

Complete genome sequence of Escherichia coli 81009, a representative of the sequence type 131 C1-M27 clade with a multidrug-resistant phenotype.

The sequence type 131 (ST131)-H30 clone is responsible for a significant proportion of multidrug-resistant extraintestinal Escherichia coli infections. Recently, the C1-M27 clade of ST131-H30, associated with blaCTX-M-27, has emerged. The complete genome sequence of E. coli isolate 81009 belonging to this clone, previously used during the development of ST131-specific monoclonal antibodies, is reported here.

Complete genome sequence of a type strain of Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii, a member of the Mycobacterium abscessus complex.

Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii is a rapidly growing mycobacterial organism for which the taxonomy is unclear. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of a Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii type strain. This sequence will provide essential information for future taxonomic and comparative genome studies of these mycobacteria.

High-quality complete genome sequences of three bovine Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O177:H- (fliCH25) isolates harboring virulent stx2 and multiple plasmids.

Shiga toxin-producingEscherichia coli(STEC) bacteria are zoonotic pathogens. We report here the high-quality complete genome sequences of three STEC O177:H- (fliCH25) strains, SMN152SH1, SMN013SH2, and SMN197SH3. The assembled genomes consisted of one optical map-verified circular chromosome for each strain, plus two plasmids for SMN013SH2 and three plasmids for SMN152SH1 and SMN197SH3, respectively.

Draft genome sequence of Cyanobacterium sp. strain HL-69, isolated from a benthic microbial mat from a magnesium sulfate-dominated hypersaline lake.

The complete genome sequence ofCyanobacteriumsp. strain HL-69 consists of 3,155,247 bp and contains 2,897 predicted genes comprising a chromosome and two plasmids. The genome is consistent with a halophilic nondiazotrophic phototrophic lifestyle, and this organism is able to synthesize most B vitamins and produces several secondary metabolites.

Complete genome sequence of a new halophilic archaeon, Haloarcula taiwanensis, isolated from a solar saltern in southern Taiwan.

We report here the completion of the genome sequence of a new species of haloarchaea, Haloarcula taiwanensis, isolated in southern Taiwan. The 3,721,706-bp genome consisted of chromosome I (2,966,258 bp, 63.6% GC content), chromosome II (525,233 bp, 59.6% GC content), plasmid pNYT1 (129,893 bp, 55.3% GC content), and plasmid pNYT2 (100,322 bp, 55.7% GC content).

Complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas sp. strain NC02, isolated from soil.

We report here the complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas sp. strain NC02, isolated from soil in eastern Massachusetts. We assembled PacBio reads into a single closed contig with 132× mean coverage and then polished this contig using Illumina MiSeq reads, yielding a 6,890,566-bp sequence with 61.1% GC content.
