Names
Ca. Scalindua Ca. Scalindua rubra
Abstract
A novel anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacterium was detected in an upflow column reactor treating synthetic nitrogen-rich saline solution. Here, we assembled a 4.59-Mb draft genome sequence of this bacterium, identified as a member of the genus “ Candidatus Scalindua,” that has 84% nucleotide-level genomic similarity with the closest related anammox bacterium (“ Candidatus Scalindua rubra”).

Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Serratia symbiotica” Strain IS, a Facultative Bacterial Symbiont of the Pea Aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum

Citation

Names
Ca. Serratia symbiotica
Abstract
“ Candidatus Serratia symbiotica” is a facultative bacterial symbiont of aphids that affects various ecological traits of the host insects. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of “ Candidatus Serratia symbiotica” strain IS, consisting of a 2,736,352-bp chromosome and an 82,605-bp plasmid, from the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum .

Draft Genome Sequence of a “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris”-Related Strain (Aster Yellows, Subgroup 16SrI-B) from South Africa

Citation

Names
Ca. Phytoplasma asteris
Abstract
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a phytoplasma discovered in grapevine. The genome size is 600,116 nucleotides (nt), with 597 predicted open reading frames.

“ Candidatus Colwellia aromaticivorans” sp. nov., “ Candidatus Halocyntiibacter alkanivorans” sp. nov., and “ Candidatus Ulvibacter alkanivorans” sp. nov. Genome Sequences

Citation

Names
Ca. Colwellia aromaticivorans Ca. Halocyntiibacter alkanivorans Ca. Ulvibacter alkanivorans
Abstract
Unplanned oil spills during offshore production are a serious problem for the industry and the marine environment. Here, we present the genome sequence analysis of three novel hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria, namely, “ Candidatus Colwellia aromaticivorans” sp.

Complete Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Thioglobus sp.” Strain NP1, an Open-Ocean Isolate from the SUP05 Clade of Marine Gammaproteobacteria

Citation
Spietz et al. (2019). Microbiology Resource Announcements 8 (11)

Abstract
“ Candidatus Thioglobus sp.” strain NP1 is an open-ocean isolate from the SUP05 clade of Gammaproteobacteria . Whole-genome comparisons of strain NP1 to other sequenced isolates from the SUP05 clade indicate that it represents a new species of SUP05 that lacks the ability to fix inorganic carbon using the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle.
