Maize bacterial leaf streak disease has spread across maize crops in South Africa and therefore potentially poses a threat to maize production and food security. Until recently, this pathogen was identified as a Xanthomonas campestris pathovar, whereas our South African genomes seem to be more divergent and create their own subclade.

We report here the draft genome sequence of a Streptococcus species belonging to the S. mitis group. While a clear species identification cannot be made for the isolate, it appears that its most recent common ancestor is the species S. pseudopneumoniae.

We report here the genome sequence of the ascomycetous yeast Torulaspora microellipsoides CLIB 830T A reference genome for this species, which has been found as a donor of genetic material in wine strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, will undoubtedly give clues to our understanding of horizontal transfer mechanisms between species in the wine environment.

We present the draft genome of Mycoplasma arginini strain NGR_2017. This strain was recovered in Nigeria from cell culture in 2017. The assembly contains 620,555 bp in 12 contigs. It contains 561 coding sequences, 34 RNAs (29 tRNAs, 4 rRNAs, and 1 transfer-messenger RNA [tmRNA]), and a >26-kb integrative and conjugative element.

Whole-genome shotgun sequences and bottom-up assembly of contigs of six skin isolates of Streptococcus pyogenes, viz, NS88.3 (emm98.1), NS223 (emm91), NS455 (emm52), SS1448 (emm86.2), SS1572 (emm223), and SS1574 (emm224), are presented here. All contigs were annotated, and the gene arrangements and the inferred proteins were consistent with a pattern D classification.
