Ten distinct isolates from the genus Pseudomonas were isolated in culture. The genomes of these isolates were sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform and assembled in order to provide insight into the metabolic and carbon-degrading potential of bacteria residing in soils at high latitudes.
This study presents the draft genome of Rossellomorea marisflavi DL-A, a malathion-degrading bacterium isolated from the North Oconee River in Athens, GA, USA. The DL-A genome is 4.27 Mb in size and comprises 4,271 coding sequences with proteins.
Genome-wide binding sites of 44 putative transcription factors (TFs) from Novosphingobium aromaticivorans DSM12444 were analyzed using DNA affinity purification sequencing. We report that 32 of these TFs have at least one area of enrichment. These data will help better understand aromatic metabolism and other features of N. aromaticivorans biology.
The syntrophic obligate proton-reducing bacterium Syntrophus buswellii DSM 102354 T , isolated from anaerobic digester sludge, degrades benzoate and possibly hydrocinnamate (phenyl-3-propionate) when grown with a suitable hydrogenotrophic partner. The complete genome sequence data provide insight regarding aromatic compound degradation under thermodynamically limiting conditions when exogenous electron acceptors are absent.
We report the draft genome sequences of five native nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with roots of switchgrass isolated from the Tallgrass Prairies of Oklahoma. Nitrogen-fixing genes, including the nif cluster, are conserved across the Klebsiella and Kosakonia strains.
ABSTRACT We present the draft genome sequences of three Burkholderia thailandensis strains, E421, E426, and DW503. E421 consists of 90 contigs of 6,639,935 bp and 67.73% GC content. E426 consists of 106 contigs of 6,587,853 bp and 67.73% GC content. DW503 consists of 102 contigs of 6,458,767 bp and 67.64% GC content.
Here, we report the annotated genome sequence for a heterokont alga from the class Xanthophyceae. This high-biomass-producing strain, Tribonema minus UTEX B 3156, was isolated from a wastewater treatment plant in California. It is stable in outdoor raceway ponds and is a promising industrial feedstock for biofuels and bioproducts.
Multiplex, randomized CRISPR interference sequencing (MuRCiS) allows for the simultaneous identification of multiple gene knockouts that together influence microbial processes. Here, we report on an updated analysis tool called Auto-MuRCiS that utilizes Docker to make the analysis of these data rapid and more user-friendly.
Actinomyces sp. HMT175 strain ORNL0102 was isolated from a human saliva sample and can serve as a host for the ectobiont saccharibacterium/TM7 HMT957. Its 3.3-Mbp circular chromosome was completely sequenced using PacBio long reads, and it encodes 2,408 proteins and 63 RNAs.
ABSTRACT Yarrowia lipolytica is an oleaginous yeast that produces high titers of fatty acid-derived biofuels and biochemicals. It can grow on hydrophobic carbon sources and lignocellulosic hydrolysates. The genome sequence of Y. lipolytica NRRL Y-64008 is reported to aid in its development as a biotechnological chassis for producing biofuels and bioproducts.
ABSTRACT A collection of 47 bacteria isolated from the mucilage of aerial roots of energy sorghum is available at the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center, Michigan State University, Michigan, USA. We enriched bacteria with putative plant-beneficial phenotypes and included information on phenotypic diversity, taxonomy, and whole genome sequences.
ABSTRACT A collection of 44 isolates isolated from the epicuticular wax of stems of energy sorghum is available at the Great Lakes Bioenergy Researcher Center, Michigan State University, MI, USA. We enriched bacteria with putative plant-beneficial phenotypes and include information on their phenotypic diversity, taxonomy, and whole-genome sequences.
We report the genome sequence of a polyethylene-degrading bacterial strain identified as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain PE591, which was isolated from plastic debris found in savanna soil. The genome was assembled in 16 scaffolds with a length of 4,751,236 bp, a GC content of 66.5%, and 4,432 predicted genes.
The siderophilic, thermophilic Leptolyngbyaceae cyanobacterium JSC-12 was isolated from a microbial mat in an iron-depositing hot spring. Here, we report the high-quality draft genome sequence of JSC-12, which may help elucidate the mechanisms of resistance to extreme iron concentrations in siderophilic cyanobacteria and lead to new remediation biotechnologies.
Enterobacter hormaechei DVZ29 was isolated from a sediment trap incubated in an 129 I plume at the Hanford Site (Washington State, USA). Whole genome sequencing of the strain resulted in 32 contigs and revealed that the genome is 4.90 Mb, with a G+C content of 55.61%.
Pseudomonas strains DVZ6 and DVZ24 were isolated from a sediment trap incubated in an 129 I plume at the Hanford Site (Washington State, USA). Whole-genome sequencing of the strains revealed that both genomes are 5.77 Mb in size, with a G + C content of 64.75%.
Frankiaceae are bacterial endosymbionts that are also found free-living in soil. Here, we present the genome sequences of two novel bacterial members of the order Frankiales , class Actinobacteria , isolated from temperate terrestrial forest soils. The genomes for MT45 and GAS493 indicate a genetic capacity for carbohydrate degradation but not nitrogen fixation.
Roseimicrobium sp. strain ORNL1 is a soil bacterium that belongs to the phylum Verrucomicrobia and was isolated from the rhizosphere of a forest Eastern cottonwood tree, Populus deltoides , in Tennessee. Its 7.9-Mb chromosome was completely sequenced using PacBio long reads and is predicted to encode 6,288 proteins and 76 RNAs.
