Genome Sequence of the Soybean Cyst Nematode (Heterodera glycines) Endosymbiont “Candidatus Cardinium hertigii” Strain cHgTN10

Citation
Showmaker et al. (2018). Genome Announcements 6 (26)
Names
Ca. Cardinium hertigii
Abstract
In this study, we present the genome sequence of the “ Candidatus Cardinium hertigii” strain cHgTN10, an endosymbiotic bacterium of the plant-parasitic nematode Heterodera glycines . This is the first genome assembly reported for an endosymbiont directly sequenced from a tylenchid nematode.

Names
Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
The draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” strain TX1712, obtained from a Texas citrus tree, is reported here. Strain TX1712 has a draft genome size of 1,203,333 bp, a G+C content of 36.4%, 1,230 predicted open reading frames, and 41 RNAs and comprises 97.4% of the psy62 reference genome.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Here, we report the draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter europaeus” ASNZ1, assembled from broom psyllids ( Arytainilla spartiophila ) from New Zealand. The assembly comprises 15 contigs, with a total length of 1.33 Mb and a G+C content of 33.5%.

Draft Genome Sequence of “Candidatus Phycosocius bacilliformis,” an Alphaproteobacterial Ectosymbiont of the Hydrocarbon-Producing Green Alga Botryococcus braunii

Citation
Tanabe et al. (2018). Genome Announcements 6 (19)
Names
Ca. Phycosocius bacilliformis
Abstract
ABSTRACT “ Candidatus Phycosocius bacilliformis” is an alphaproteobacterial ectosymbiont of the hydrocarbon-producing green alga Botryococcus braunii . We sequenced the whole genome of “ Ca. P. bacilliformis” BOTRYCO-2, isolated from a two-membered culture with B. braunii . The genome contains approximately 3.3 Mb, with an average G+C content of 56.91% and 3,125 predicted protei

Draft Genome Sequence of a “ Candidatus Brocadia” Bacterium Enriched from Activated Sludge Collected in a Tropical Climate

Citation
Liu et al. (2018). Genome Announcements 6 (19)
Names
“Brocadia”
Abstract
ABSTRACT Here, we present the draft genome sequence of an anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacterium (AnAOB), “ Candidatus Brocadia,” which was enriched in an anammox reactor. A 3.2-Mb genome sequence comprising 168 contigs was assembled, in which 2,765 protein-coding genes, 47 tRNAs, and one each of 5S, 16S, and 23S rRNAs were annotated. No evidence for the presence of a nitric oxide-forming nitrite reductase was found.
