We report here the complete annotated genome sequence of a clinical serovar 8 isolate
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
MIDG2331. Unlike the serovar 8 reference strain 405, MIDG2331 is amenable to genetic manipulation via natural transformation as well as conjugation, making it ideal for studies of gene function.
Lysinibacillus sphaericusis a species that contains strains widely used in the biological control of mosquitoes. Here, we present the complete 4.67-Mb genome of the WHO entomopathogenic reference strainL. sphaericus2362, which is probably one of the most commercialized and studied strains. Genes coding for mosquitocidal toxin proteins were detected.
ABSTRACT
The complete genome sequence of highly virulent Riemerella anatipestifer strain HXb2 was determined. The genome consisted of a single circular chromosome of 2,425,237 bp containing 2,383 putative open reading frames (ORFs), 9 rRNA operons, and 40 tRNA genes.
The complete genome sequence of
Bluetongue virus
(BTV) serotype 17 strain 17/BRA/2014/73, isolated from a sheep in Brazil in 2014, is reported here. All segments clustered with western topotype strains and indicated reassortment events with other BTV from the Americas. The strain 17/BRA/2014/73 represents a novel reference strain for BTV-17 from South America.
Bartonella bacilliformis is the biological agent of Carrion’s disease, a vector-borne, life-threatening human bartonellosis restricted to South America. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of B. bacilliformis KC584 (ATCC 35686). Although it is commonly used as a reference strain, to date, its complete genome has not been published.
ABSTRACT
We report here the complete genome sequence of the methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus strain ATCC 6538 (FDA 209, DSM 799, WDCM 00032, and NCTC 10788).
ABSTRACT
Bacillus thuringiensis is widely used in producing ecofriendly microbial agents for the purpose of controlling insect pests. In this study, we determined the complete genome sequence of B. thuringiensis subsp. jinghongiensis reference strain YGd22-03, which contains three cry genes and one cerecidin biosynthetic gene cluster.
