Names: Ca. Mycoplasma haemobos
Abstract: ABSTRACT We present here the draft genome sequence of the first “ Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos” strain found in cattle in Mexico. This hemotropic mycoplasma causes acute and chronic disease in animals. This genome is a starting point for studying the role of this mycoplasma in coinfections and synergistic mechanisms associated with the disease.

Names: Ca. Phytoplasma oryzae
Abstract: ABSTRACT Phytoplasmas are bacterial plant pathogens with devastating impact on agricultural production worldwide. In eastern Africa, Napier grass stunt disease causes serious economic losses in the smallholder dairy industry. This draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma oryzae” strain Mbita1 provides insight into its genomic organization and the molecular basis of pathogenicity.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Here, we present the draft genome of “ Candidatus Methanomethylophilus” sp. 1R26, a member of the newly described Methanomassiliicoccales order of Euryarcheaota . The enrichment culture was established from bovine rumen contents and produced methane from trimethylamine and methanol. The draft genome contains genes for methanogenesis from methylated compounds.

Names: Ca. Berkiella aquae Ca. Berkiella cookevillensis
Abstract: ABSTRACT “ Candidatus Berkiella cookevillensis” and “ Candidatus Berkiella aquae” are obligate intranuclear endosymbionts of freshwater amoebae. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of these two bacteria, with total sizes of 2,990,361 bp and 3,626,027 bp, respectively.

Names: Ca. Sulcia muelleri
Abstract: ABSTRACT Two bacterial symbionts of the European pest leafhopper, Macrosteles quadripunctulatus (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), were fully sequenced. “ Candidatus Sulcia muelleri” and “ Ca . Nasuia deltocephalinicola” represent two of the smallest known bacterial genomes at 190 kb and 112 kb, respectively. Genome sequences are nearly identical to strains reported from the closely related host species,

Names: Ca. Bacteroides periocalifornicus
Abstract: 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 .
