AbstractLyme disease is caused by spirochaetes of theBorrelia burgdorferisensu lato genospecies. Complete genome assemblies are available for fewer than ten strains ofBorrelia burgdorferisensu stricto, the primary cause of Lyme disease in North America. MM1 is a sensu stricto strain originally isolated in the midwestern United States. Aside from a small number of genes, the complete genome sequence of this strain has not been reported. Here we present the complete genome sequence of MM1 in relation to other sensu stricto strains and in terms of its Multi Locus Sequence Typing. Our results indicate that MM1 is a new sequence type which contains a conserved main chromosome and 15 plasmids. Our results include the first contiguous 28.5 kb assembly of lp28-8, a linear plasmid carrying thevlsantigenic variation system, from aBorrelia burgdorferisensu stricto strain.

Arcobacter skirrowii is a species of veterinary importance, originally recovered from the feces, aborted fetuses, and preputial fluids of livestock. We present here the whole-genome sequence of the A. skirrowii type strain LMG 6621 (= 449/80T = CCUG 10374T), isolated in the United Kingdom from a lamb diarrheal fecal sample.

ABSTRACT The genus Lyssavirus includes rabies virus as well as multiple diverse and recently described novel species. Using next-generation sequencing technologies, we have obtained the whole-genome sequence of Matlo bat lyssavirus, which was isolated from a Natal long-fingered bat (Miniopterus natalensis) in South Africa.

ABSTRACT Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive rod-shaped spore-forming bacterium widespread in different environmental niches. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus cereus VKM B-370 from the All-Russian Collection of Microorganisms, the host strain for bacteriophages vB_BtS_B83, vB_BcM_Sam46, vB_BcM_Sam112, and Izhevsk.

We report here the complete genome sequence ofPseudomonas aeruginosastrain BAMCPA07-48, isolated from a combat injury wound. The closed genome sequence of this isolate is a valuable resource for pathogenome characterization ofP. aeruginosaassociated with wounds, which will aid in the development of a higher-resolution phylogenomic framework for molecular-guided pathogen-surveillance.

Here, we announce the complete genome sequence of bacteriophage PhiG17, which is virulent to Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains and was isolated from cattle feces in the North West province of South Africa. This report presents the major genetic features of the phage PhiG17 based on its whole-genome sequence.

The complete genome sequence of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) from a fledgling red-capped parrot ( Purpureicephalus spurius ) was assembled and characterized. The genome consists of 1,995 nucleotides and encodes two major proteins in opposing directions. This is the first evidence of BFDV infectivity and a complete genome sequence for this novel host.

Synechococcus spp. are unicellular cyanobacteria that are globally distributed and are important primary producers in marine coastal environments. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Synechococcus sp. strain WH 8101 and identify genomic islands that may play a role in virus-host interactions.

ABSTRACTThis work describes a whole-genome sequence ofStreptococcus agalactiaestrain GD201008-001, a pathogen causing meningoencephalitis in cultural tilapia in China. The genome sequence provides opportunities to understand the piscine GBS pathogenicity and its genetic basis associated with host tropism.
