Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Dehalogenimonas etheniformans” Strain GP, a Vinyl Chloride-Respiring Anaerobe

Citation
Yang et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (50)
Names
Ca. Dehalogenimonas etheniformans
Abstract
“ Candidatus Dehalogenimonas etheniformans” strain GP couples growth with the reductive dechlorination of vinyl chloride and several polychlorinated ethenes. The genome sequence comprises a circular 2.07-Mb chromosome with a G+C content of 51.9% and harbors 50 putative reductive dehalogenase genes.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Filamentous Anoxygenic Phototrophic Bacterium, “ Candidatus Roseilinea sp. Strain NK_OTU-006,” Recovered from Metagenomic Data of a Hot Spring Microbial Mat

Citation
Martinez et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (50)
Names
“Roseilinea”
Abstract
We report here the metagenome-assembled draft genome of an uncultured filamentous anoxygenic phototroph of the phylum Chloroflexota (formerly Chloroflexi ), “ Candidatus Roseilinea sp. strain NK_OTU-006,” recovered from hot spring-associated microbial mats. The 3.6-Mb genome is estimated to be 94% complete and comprises 117 contigs encoding 3,203 predicted genes, including a full-length rRNA operon.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Novel “ Candidatus Liberibacter” Species Detected in a Zanthoxylum Species from Bhutan

Citation
Chambers et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (40)
Names
Liberibacter
Abstract
The draft genome sequence of a novel “ Candidatus Liberibacter” species detected in an unidentified species of Zanthoxylum (Rutaceae) collected in Bhutan is reported. The total length is 1,408,989 bp with 1,169 coding sequences in 96 contigs, a GC content of 37.3%, and 76 to 77% average nucleotide identity with several other “ Ca . Liberibacter” species.

Genome Analysis of “ Candidatus Regiella insecticola” Strain TUt, Facultative Bacterial Symbiont of the Pea Aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum

Citation
Nikoh et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (40)
Names
Ca. Regiella insecticola
Abstract
The genome of “ Candidatus Regiella insecticola” strain TUt, a facultative bacterial symbiont of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum , was analyzed. We determined a 2.5-Mb draft genome consisting of 14 contigs; this will contribute to the understanding of the symbiont, which underpins various ecologically adaptive traits of the host insect.

Draft Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni” (X-Disease Group, Subgroup 16SrIII-B) Strain ChTDIII from Argentina

Citation
Fernández et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (38)
Names
Ca. Phytoplasma pruni
Abstract
Herein, we report the draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni” strain ChTDIII (subgroup 16SrIII-B). The final assembly consists of 790,517 nucleotides organized in 67 contigs (minimal size, 1 kb), with a G+C content of 29.4% and encoding 672 proteins.

Complete Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris” RP166, a Plant Pathogen Associated with Rapeseed Phyllody Disease in Poland

Citation
Cho et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (35)
Names
Ca. Phytoplasma asteris
Abstract
The complete genome sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris” RP166, which consists of one 829,546-bp circular chromosome, is presented in this work. This bacterium is associated with rapeseed phyllody disease in Poland and belongs to the 16SrI-B (i.e., aster yellows) group.

Complete Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Syntrophocurvum alkaliphilum” Strain B(2M), Obtained from the Metagenome of a Salt-Tolerant Alkaliphilic Anaerobic Syntrophic Butyrate-Degrading Consortium

Citation
Mardanov et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (6)
Names
Ca. Syntrophocurvum alkaliphilum
Abstract
A highly salt-tolerant and alkaliphilic syntrophic consortium that degrades butyrate under sulfate-reducing conditions was purified from a hypersaline soda lake in southwest Siberia. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of the syntrophic primary butyrate degrader in order to understand the molecular mechanisms of interaction between consortium members.

Draft Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Arthromitus” UMNCA01, a Suspected Commensal Isolated from the Gut Microbiome of Commercial Turkey

Citation
Hedblom et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (4)
Names
Ca. Arthromitus
Abstract
“ Candidatus Arthromitus” UMNCA01 was recovered from ileal samples of commercial turkey poults and may have probiotic capabilities. The complete genome was determined using the Illumina MiSeq and HiSeq sequencing platforms. The complete genome consists of 1,631,326 bp and has a G+C content of 26.14%, 1,540 coding sequences (CDS), and 37 RNA coding genes.

Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Nitrosocosmicus franklandus” C13, a Terrestrial Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaeon

Citation
