Near-Complete Genome Sequence of Ralstonia solanacearum T523, a Phylotype I Tomato Phytopathogen Isolated from the Philippines

Abstract

Ralstonia solanacearum strain T523 is the major phytopathogen causing tomato bacterial wilt in the Philippines. Here, we report the complete chromosome and draft megaplasmid genomes with predicted gene inventories supporting rhizosphere processes, extensive plant virulence effectors, and the production of bioactive signaling metabolites, such as ralstonin, micacocidin, and homoserine lactone.

Complete Genome Sequence of Nocardia sp. Strain CS682, a Producer of Antibacterial Compound Nargenicin A1

“…CS682 was isolated and purified using the TIANamp bacterial DNA kit. A PacBio SMRTbell library was constructed and sequenced on the PacBio RS platform (Macrogen, Inc., Republic of Korea) (6, 7). The Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process (HGAP) algorithm was executed in the Web-based graphical user interface (GUI) in the SMRT Analysis pipeline version 2.3.0 for preparing the PacBio library and for high-quality de novo assembly of the genome from PacBio raw reads.…”
