We report here the genome sequence of the bacterium Pseudomonas sp. WMBT8 isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of the glacial relic freshwater fish Myoxocephalus thompsonii (deepwater sculpin). DNA sequencing results showed that strain WMBT8 had a single circular genome of 6.1 Mb with a GC content of 61%.

The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria is a major concern from both epidemiological and ecological perspectives. Studying these microorganisms is crucial for developing prevention strategies. We report the complete genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant Citrobacter portucalensis strain KOS1-1, isolated from wastewater in the city of Moscow.

Three novel bacterial strains, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus salivarius, and Streptococcus anginosus, were cultured from human gastric biopsy tissue from Colombian, South America patients with a high risk for gastric cancer. Bacteria were sequenced using Illumina MiSeq technology for phylogenetic characterization and identification of genetic mechanisms conferring pathogenic or protective potential.

We report here the draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus equorum strain P30, isolated from the feces of a fermented food-consuming healthy volunteer from Sikkim, India. The genome has 2,728,812 bp spread among 57 contigs, with a G+C content of 33%, and contains multiple genes for antimicrobial resistance.

We recovered and characterized four bacterial MAGs from two Brazilian sugarcane biorefineries, with the aim of investigating the microbial environment during fuel ethanol production. MAGs belonged to Lactobacillus amylovorus and Limosilactobacillus fermentum, both known lactic acid bacterial contaminants. Genomic analyses revealed key functional traits but no resistance or virulence genes.

Nonomuraea bangladeshensis B208 has been reported to convert several flavonoids into hydroxylated derivatives. Here, we present a draft genome sequence that reveals the gene sets encoding putative cytochrome P450 monooxygenases associated with the generation of oxygenated flavonoids of medical and nutritional relevance.

We report the complete genome sequence of a carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter hormaechei ST133 strain isolated from a clinical stool sample at a hospital in Tokyo, Japan, in 2022. This isolate harbors a novel conjugative IncHI2-pST1 plasmid carrying bla_IMP-6. Additionally, this plasmid co-carries bla_CTX-M-9, bla_SHV-12, aac(6')-IIc, sul1, aadA2, qnrA1, dfrA16, and mcr-9.2.

Extremophilic microorganisms thrive in alkaline and saline conditions that reduce contamination risks, enabling efficient fermentation. We report the complete genomes of seven Halomonas mongoliensis isolates from salt-rich lakes in Brazil's Pantanal, expanding resources for biotechnological development.

A total of 319 bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) were recovered from soil samples collected on the Antarctic Peninsula (Deception and Livingston Islands). These MAGs reveal microbial life's phylogenetic diversity and functional potential in extreme polar environments, providing resources for advancing microbial ecology, evolution, and Antarctic biotechnology.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PA1, a multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen that was isolated from Dhaka, Bangladesh, has a 6.4 Mbp draft genome. The key features include the presence of multiple virulence genes and a number of antibiotic-resistance genes. PA1 belongs to ST1650, with >99.1% ANI to PAO1.
