A high-quality draft genome sequence of actinomycete Gordonia paraffinivorans IEGM 735 isolated from wastewater was obtained using Illumina sequencing. This genome sequence will be useful for elucidating the genetic mechanisms of xenobiotic biodegradation and heavy metal resistance within a rare, underexplored, and biotechnologically promising species G. paraffinivorans.

We report complete genome sequences of Rhizobium favelukesii strains T136, T1470, and T1473 isolated from root-nodules of Medicago and Melilotus. Each genome comprises a chromosome (~4.2 Mb) and four to seven plasmids (~0.01-1.99 Mb) and contains predicted nodulation and nitrogen-fixation genes but lacks predicted type III secretion system genes.

Pathogenic Escherichia coli and Salmonella threaten poultry production and human health through zoonotic transmission. Whole-genome sequencing of multidrug-resistant isolates from Bangladeshi poultry provides critical insights into antimicrobial resistance and population structure, supporting integrated One Health approaches to combat antimicrobial resistance.

We report the draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus saprophyticus strain of Nasal Sample 2 (NS2) isolated from a milkman handling cows with subclinical mastitis in Kiruhura District, Uganda. The assembled genome comprises 2,773,281 bp with a guanine and cytosine (GC) content of 33%, 14 contigs, N50 (2,590,816 Mb), and 1 L50.

Candida solani is a member of the Wickerhamomyces clade of budding yeasts. We present the genome sequence of C. solani strain UCD2211 isolated from soil on the University College Dublin (UCD) campus in Ireland. This genome was 12.67 Mb and assembled into six chromosome-sized contigs plus a mitochondrial genome contig.

We report the draft genome sequence of the extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain NGCE-700 isolated from a bacteremia patient in Bangladesh. The 5.53 Mb genome comprises nine contigs with N50 5.49 Mb and guanine or cytosine content of 57.3% and harbors multiple resistant genes and plasmids consistent with its XDR phenotype.

We report the draft genome sequence of Denitratisoma sp. strain agr-D3, isolated from common reed using a droplet-based cultivation method. The draft genome is 3,082,957 bp with a G + C content of 63.6%. The genome was predicted to contain 2,914 coding sequences and 4 rRNA genes.

Sequence data indicate that a new virus, bee xinmovirus 1, is present in both honey bee (Apis mellifera) and mining bee (Andrena spp.) samples from Israel. The near-complete genome is approximately 13,130 nucleotides long and most similar to viruses of the family Xinmoviridae (S. Sharpe and S. Paraskevopoulou, J Gen Virol 104:001906, 2023, https://doi.org/10.1099/jgv.0.001906).

We report the genome of vB_KoxiM_BaqKoxi (BaqKoxi), a temperate phage infecting an antibiotic-resistant strain of Klebsiella oxytoca, isolated from the Magdalena River in Barranquilla, Colombia. BaqKoxi contains a linear 72,063 bp dsDNA genome with 98 coding DNA sequences (CDS), including two depolymerases with complementary activities, a pectate lyase, and a capsular depolymerase.

We report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus swezeyi SDB04, which was isolated from a hypersaline environment and could produce Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). The de novo assembly resulted in an estimated chromosome size of 4.29 Mb. Genomic sequence information will help to develop the potential for efficient PHA production.
