ABSTRACT Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is the causative agent of bacterial leaf blight of rice. The application of bacteriophages may provide an effective tool against this bacterium. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of 10 newly isolated OP2-like X. oryzae pv. oryzae bacteriophages.

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis and Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola cause bacterial leaf blight and bacterial leaf spot of crucifers (Brassicaceae). Both pathogens are threats to the cultivation of cruciferous crops. Here, we sequenced two strains of each pathogen, which will contribute to the development of countermeasures for the above diseases.

We present the complete genome sequences of four phages that infect Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood disease in honeybees. The phages were isolated from beehives and beeswax products from Las Vegas, Nevada.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the lead causative agent for seafood-borne human gastroenteritis. While its occurrence has traditionally been uncommon in Europe and the United Kingdom, rising sea surface temperatures have resulted in an increased prevalence. Here, we present the complete genome sequences of four novel V. parahaemolyticus strains isolated in the United Kingdom.

We present here the complete genomes of 18 phages that infect Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood in honeybees. The phages were isolated between 2014 and 2016 as part of an undergraduate phage discovery course at Brigham Young University.

ABSTRACTMultilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) is efficient for routine typing and for investigating the genetic structures of natural microbial populations. Two distinct pathovars ofXanthomonas oryzaecan cause significant crop losses in tropical and temperate rice-growing countries. Bacterial leaf streak is caused byX. oryzaepv. oryzicola, and bacterial leaf blight is caused byX. oryzaepv. oryzae. For the latter, two genetic lineages have been described in the literature. We developed a universal MLVA typing tool both for the identification of the threeX. oryzaegenetic lineages and for epidemiological analyses. Sixteen candidate variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) loci were selected according to their presence and polymorphism in 10 draft or complete genome sequences of the threeX. oryzaelineages and by VNTR sequencing of a subset of loci of interest in 20 strains per lineage. The MLVA-16 scheme was then applied to 338 strains ofX. oryzaerepresenting different pathovars and geographical locations. Linkage disequilibrium between MLVA loci was calculated by index association on different scales, and the 16 loci showed linear Mantel correlation with MLSA data on 56X. oryzaestrains, suggesting that they provide a good phylogenetic signal. Furthermore, analyses of sets of strains for different lineages indicated the possibility of using the scheme for deeper epidemiological investigation on small spatial scales.

ABSTRACT We present here the complete genomes of eight phages that infect Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood in honeybees. Phage PBL1c was originally isolated in 1984 from a P. larvae lysogen, while the remaining phages were isolated in 2014 from bee debris, honeycomb, and lysogens from three states in the USA.

ABSTRACT Avibacterium paragallinarum, the causative agent of infectious coryza, causes significant economic losses to the poultry industry due to increased culling rates in growing chickens and decreased egg production in layers. We present the complete genome sequences of seven strains of Avibacterium paragallinarum isolated from poultry farms in Pennsylvania during 2019.

Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a pathogen of veterinary importance, as it is the major causative agent of superficial pyoderma in dogs. We present the complete genome sequences of six strains of S. pseudintermedius derived from dogs affected with epidermal collarettes and superficial bacterial folliculitis, which are two variants of superficial pyoderma.

ABSTRACT Near neighbors to the causative agent of tularemia, Francisella tularensis, isolated from diverse sources, have been reported in recent years. In this announcement, we present the complete sequences of circular chromosomes of one of the closest neighboring genera of Francisella (i.e., the type strains of Allofrancisella inopinata and Allofrancisella frigidaquae).
