Complete genome sequence of the acetylene-fermenting Pelobacter sp. strain SFB93

Abstract

Acetylene fermentation is a rare metabolism that was previously reported as being unique to Pelobacter acetylenicus . Here, we report the genome sequence of Pelobacter sp. strain SFB93, an acetylene-fermenting bacterium isolated from sediments collected in San Francisco Bay, CA.

Use of multiple sequencing technologies to produce a high-quality genome of the fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans , the causative agent of bat White-Nose syndrome

White-Nose syndrome has recently emerged as one of the most devastating wildlife diseases recorded, causing widespread mortality in numerous bat species throughout eastern North America. Here, we present an improvised reference genome of the fungal pathogen Pseudogymnoascus destructans for use in comparative genomic studies.
