ABSTRACT The draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” strain SGCA5 from an orange citrus tree in San Gabriel, California, is reported here. SGCA5 has a genome size of 1,201,445 bp, a G+C content of 36.4%, 1,152 predicted open reading frames (ORFs), and 42 RNA genes.

ABSTRACT The genome of “ Candidatus Profftella armatura” strain YCPA from Diaphorina citri in Guangdong, China, was sequenced. The strain has a chromosome of 457,565 bp, 24.3% G+C content, 364 predicted open reading frames (ORFs), and 38 RNAs, and a plasmid, pYCPA54, of 5,458 bp with 23.9% G+C content and 5 ORFs.

ABSTRACT The draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum” strain RSTM from a potato psyllid ( Bactericera cockerelli ) in California is reported here. The RSTM strain has a genome size of 1,286,787 bp, a G+C content of 35.1%, 1,211 predicted open reading frames (ORFs), and 43 RNA genes.

ABSTRACT Here we present the draft genome of a distantly related member within the phylum Bacteriodetes , “ Candidatus Bacteroides periocalifornicus .” The draft genome sequence was assembled with metagenomic data from a patient with periodontitis. The closest relative has less than 68% average nucleic identity, supporting a novel family within Bacteriodetes .

ABSTRACT The draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” strain YCPsy from an Asian citrus psyllid ( Diaphorina citri ) in Guangdong, China, is reported here. The YCPsy strain has a genome size of 1,233,647 bp, 36.5% G+C content, 1,171 open reading frames (ORFs), and 53 RNAs.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, long rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain GYP-15T, was isolated from the culture broth of a marine microalga,Picochlorumasp. 122. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that strain GYP-15Tshared 90.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with its closest relative,Kangiella aquimarinaKCTC 12183T, and represents a distinct phylogenetic lineage in a robust clade consisting of GYP-15Tand members of the generaKangiellaandPleioneain the orderOceanospirillales. Chemotaxonomic and physiological characteristics, including major cellular fatty acids, NaCl tolerance and pattern of carbon source utilization, could also readily distinguish strain GYP-15Tfrom all established genera and species. Thus, it is concluded that strain GYP-15Trepresents a novel species of a new genus, for which the nameAliikangiella marinagen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain ofAliikangiella marinais GYP-15T( = MCCC 1K01163T = KCTC 42667T). Based on phylogenetic results, 16S rRNA gene signature nucleotide pattern and some physiological characteristics, the three generaKangiella,PleioneaandAliikangiellaare proposed to make up a novel family,Kangiellaceaefam. nov., in the orderOceanospirillales.
