ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This study reports the draft genome sequence of Pseudoalteromonas piscicida strain 36Y_RITHPW, a marine Gammaproteobacteria that synthesises bioactive compounds with antagonistic activity against Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a multidrug-resistant strain that is the causative agent of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), reported in shrimp farm outbreaks from Asia to Mexico with mortality rates of 80-100%.METHODS:
The genome of P. piscicida 36Y_RITHPW was sequenced with an Ion Torrent™ Personal Genome Machine™ (PGM) platform. A total of 606805 reads were constructed for a 308.48Mbp and 33.5×coverage. A high-quality draft assembly and ordering of contigs was obtained with Mauve. The annotation was obtained with RAST and antiSMASH.RESULTS:
The genome size consists of 5.15Mbp, with a total of 4548 genes, 4217 protein-coding sequences and a GC content of 43.3%. Several resistance genes as well as other genes involved in the production of bacteriocins and ribosomally synthesised antibacterial peptides are also present.CONCLUSIONS:
Mining of this draft genome provides valuable information to explain the antagonistic capacity of P. piscicida 36Y_RITHPW, a useful strain as a potential probiotic in shrimp aquaculture against pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus.Palabras clave
