Complete Genome Sequence of Aeromonas hydrophila Strain Y-S01, Isolated from Diseased Dark Sleeper (Odontobutis potamophila) in China

Abstract

Aeromonas hydrophila is one of the most important pathogenic bacteria for aquaculture animals, such as fish and crustaceans. In this study, we isolated a pathogenic bacterial strain, named Y-SC01, from dark sleeper (Odontobutis potamophila) with rotten gills; the strain was identified as A. hydrophila by physiological and biochemical tests. Furthermore, we sequenced its genome and assembled a chromosome of 4.72 Mb with a GC content of 58.55%, and we report major findings based on the genomic analysis.
