Mapping transcription start sites and determining their activity remain a challenging task even for well-studied organisms. Here, we present Cappable-seq RNA sequencing data of Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 after treatment with three antibiotics with various spectra of action that may expand the range of mapped transcription start sites for this model organism.

Here, we present amplicon sequences from sourdough starter cultures that have been treated with a chlorine concentration gradient mirroring public water distribution systems. Data derived present insights into the effect of important environmental factors that may influence the formation of microbial communities in food biomes.

Adastra is a lytic bacteriophage that infects Bacillus subtilis. Here, we report the sequencing and annotation of the 136,306-bp genome of Adastra and its similarity to other myophages in the SPO1 family.

The draft genome sequence of Modicisalibacter sp. strain Wilcox, isolated from produced water, is presented. The genome is 3.6 Mb in size with 3,283 protein-coding genes, including genes for hydrocarbon degradation, heavy metal resistance, and adaptation to high salinity. This genome provides insights into molecular mechanisms of hydrocarbon degradation under hypersaline conditions.

The entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium pingshaense infects diverse insect host species. We present an annotated draft genome of M. pingshaense (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation [CSIRO] strain M-1000) isolated from a Spodoptera species individual, thereby contributing to future research of M. pingshaense as a potential biological control agent.

The genome of Buchnera aphidicola National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), an obligate bacterial endosymbiont from a Japanese strain of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum, was determined. The genome sequence provides valuable information for comparative and evolutionary aspects of the intimate insect-microbe mutualism.

This study presents that Bacteroides fragilis strain 2-078382-3, isolated from an infant with diarrhea, has a 5.2 million base pair chromosome with a 43.2% GC content and a 5,600 base pairs plasmid pBFP53 with a 39.6% GC content. The strain contains 4,262 genes, including 4,105 coding sequences.

Six marine bacterial isolates were obtained from fluid and sediments collected at alkaline serpentinite mud volcanoes of the Mariana forearc to examine life at high pH in a marine environment. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of these six isolates, classified as strains of the species Marinobacter shengliensis.

We present lung virome data recovered through shotgun metagenomics in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from an infant with cystic fibrosis, who tested positive for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia infection. Using a bioinformatic pipeline for virus characterization in shotgun metagenomic data, we identified five viral contigs representing Pseudomonas phages classified as Caudoviricetes.

The Gram-negative bacterium Vibrio harveyi is a serious shrimp pathogen. Here, we present the genome sequence of Vibrio harveyi TUMSAT-2019, which was isolated from a kuruma shrimp (Penaeus japonicus) that originated from a shrimp farm in Okinawa Prefecture. The assembly totaled 5.7 Mbp, consisting of two chromosomes with no plasmid.
