Complete genome sequence of an efficient vitamin D3-hydroxylating bacterium, Pseudonocardia autotrophica NBRC 12743.

Pseudonocardia autotrophica NBRC 12743 contains a cytochrome P450 vitamin D3hydroxylase, and it is used as a biocatalyst for the commercial produc- tion of hydroxyvitamin D3, a valuable compound for medication. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of P. autotrophica NBRC 12743, which could be useful for improving the productivity of hydroxyvitamin D3.

Near-complete genome sequence of Ralstonia solanacearum T523, a phylotype I tomato phytopathogen isolated from the Philippines.

Ralstonia solanacearum strain T523 is the major phytopathogen causing tomato bacterial wilt in the Philippines. Here, we report the complete chromosome and draft megaplasmid genomes with predicted gene inventories supporting rhizo- sphere processes, extensive plant virulence effectors, and the production of bioac- tive signaling metabolites, such as ralstonin, micacocidin, and homoserine lactone.

Complete genome sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serotype Derby, associated with the pork sector in France.

In the European Union, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Derby is the most abundant serotype isolated from pork. Recent studies have shown that this serotype is polyphyletic. However, one main genomic lineage, characterized by sequence type 40 (ST40), the presence of the Salmonella pathogenicity island 23, and showing resistance to streptomycin, sulphonamides, and tetracycline (STR-SSS- TET), is pork associated. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of a strain from this lineage isolated in France.

Complete genome sequence of Moraxella bovis strain Epp-63 (300), an etiologic agent of infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis.

We report here the complete closed genome sequence of Moraxella bo- vis strain Epp-63 (300) (Epp63). This strain was isolated from an infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (IBK) case in 1963. Since then, Epp63 has been used extensively for IBK research. Consequently, the genome sequence of Epp63 should help eluci- date IBK host-pathogen interactions.

Closed genome sequences and antibiograms of 16 Pasteurella multocida isolates from bovine respiratory disease complex cases and apparently healthy controls.

Pasteurella multocida is an animal-associated Gram-negative member of the Pasteurellaceae family. It is an opportunistic pathogen and is one of the principal bacterial species contributing to bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) in feedlot cattle. We present 16 closed genome sequences and antibiograms of isolates cultured from calves exhibiting clinical signs of BRDC and from control calves not showing signs of BRDC.

Complete genome sequence of Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10T, a benzene-degrading bacterium isolated from estuarine sediment.

Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10Twas identified as a benzene-degrading aerobic bacterium isolated from estuarine sediment in the Republic of Korea. The ge- nome of strain ST58-10Twas found to be composed of a single circular chromosome (5,191,608bp) with a G+C content of 58.78% and harboring 4,473 protein-coding genes. The assembled sequence data will help elucidate potential metabolic pathways and mechanisms responsible for the hydrocarbon-degrading ability of M. aestuarii ST58-10T.

Complete genome sequence of herpes simplex virus 2 strain 333.

Herpes simplex virus 2, or human herpesvirus 2, is a ubiquitous human pathogen that causes genital ulcerations and establishes latency in sacral root ganglia. We fully sequenced and manually curated the viral genome sequence of herpes simplex virus 2, strain 333 using Pacific Biosciences and Illumina sequencing technologies.

Complete genome sequences of historic Clostridioides difficile food-dwelling ribotype 078 strains in Canada identical to that of the historic human clinical strain M120 in the United Kingdom.

Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile is a spore-forming anaerobic bacte- rium that causes severe intestinal diseases in humans. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the first C. difficile foodborne type strain (PCR ribotype 078) isolated from food animals in Canada in 2004, which has 100% similarity to the ge- nome sequence of the historic human clinical strain M120.

Complete genome sequence of a wild-type isolate of Caulobacter vibrioides strain CB1.

The complete genome sequence of Caulobacter vibrioides strain CB1 consists of a chromosome of 4,137,285 bp, with a GC content of 67.2% and 3,990 coding DNA sequences. This strain contains the typical genome rearrangement that is characteristic of the Caulobacter strains that are currently sequenced. However, this strain is so closely related to sequenced strain NA1000 that rearrangements were minimal. This will allow further clarification of the causes of rearrangements in the species.

The complete genomic sequence of a novel cold-adapted bacterium, Planococcus maritimus Y42, isolated from crude oil-contaminated soil.

Planococcus maritimus Y42, isolated from the petroleum-contaminated soil of the Qaidam Basin, can use crude oil as its sole source of carbon and energy at 20 °C. The genome of P. maritimus strain Y42 has been sequenced to provide information on its properties. Genomic analysis shows that the genome of strain Y42 contains one circular DNA chromosome with a size of 3,718,896 bp and a GC content of 48.8%, and three plasmids (329,482; 89,073; and 12,282 bp). Although the strain Y42 did not show a remarkably higher ability in degrading crude oil than other oil-degrading bacteria, the existence of strain Y42 played a significant role to reducing the overall environmental impact as an indigenous oil-degrading bacterium. In addition, genome annotation revealed that strain Y42 has many genes responsible for hydrocarbon degradation. Structural features of the genomes might provide a competitive edge for P. maritimus strain Y42 to survive in oil-polluted environments and be worthy of further study in oil degradation for the recovery of crude oil-polluted environments.
