RESUMO
The genetic diversity of Vibrio anguillarum pJM1-like plasmids was investigated. Plasmids were isolated from 18 V. anguillarum serovar O1 strains collected from different geographic locations and fish species. The plasmids were sequenced and compared with the complete sequence of the published virulence plasmid pJM1. All 18 strains contained pJM1-like plasmids with approximately 65 kbp and all plasmids encoded the virulence genes responsible for the anguibactin iron sequestering system. The plasmids were highly conserved but minor differences were observed in some genes. A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) analysis showed 0-11 nucleotide variations between each of the 18 plasmids and the pJM1 plasmid. Compared with the sequence of pJM1, nonsynonymous SNPs were identified in fatC, angR, angL, pJM1_p19, and angE. In particular, a mutation found in 15 out of 18 sequenced plasmids in angR has previously been linked to hyperproduction of anguibactin and was found in all the European isolates. However, overall the pJM1-like plasmids isolated from V. anguillarum serovar O1 exhibited a high degree of conservation regardless of their geographical origin or fish species.

Enterococcus faecalis is associated with streptococcosis like infection in fish. A whole-genome sequence study was conducted to investigate the virulence factor and antibiotic-resistance genes in three fish pathogenic E. faecalis. Genomic DNA was extracted from three strains of E. faecalis isolated from streptococcosis infected Nile tilapia (strains BF1B1 and BFFF11) and Thai sarpunti (strain BFPS6). The whole genome sequences of these three strains were performed using a MiSeq sequencer (Illumina, Inc.). All three strains conserved 69 virulence factor such as genes associated with protection against oxidative stress, bacterial cell wall synthesis, gelatinase toxin, multiple biofilm-associated genes and capsule producing genes. Moreover, 39 antibiotic-resistance genes against sixteen major groups of antibiotics were identified in the genome sequences of all three strains. The most commonly used antibiotic Tetracycline resistance genes were found only in BFPS6 strain, whereas, Bacteriocin synthesis genes were identified in both BFFF11 and BFPS6 strain. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strains BF1B1 and BFFF1 form a different cluster than BFPS6. This is one of the first whole-genome sequence study of fish pathogenic E. faecalis, unfold new information on the virulence factor and Antibiotic resistance genes linked to pathogenicity in fish.

A fish-pathogenic bacterium, Enterococcus faecalis strain BFFF11, was isolated from a tilapia suffering from streptococcosis in a fish farm in the Gazipur district of Bangladesh. The whole genome of this strain, BFFF11, was 3,067,042 bp, with a GC content of 37.4%.
RESUMO
This study reports the draft genome sequence of a promising fish probiotic, Bacillus subtilis strain WS1A, that possesses antimicrobial activity against Aeromonas veronii and suppressed motile Aeromonas septicemia in Labeo rohita The de novo assembly resulted in an estimated chromosome size of 4,148,460 bp, with 4,288 open reading frames.
