Abstract
ABSTRACTWe isolated four Thermus thermophilus strains from Arima Hot Spring in Japan. Complete genome sequencing revealed that they showed average nucleotide identities of ≥99.21% to each other and to strains previously isolated from the same spot, but of ≤97.86% to strains from geographically different spots in Japan, reflecting habitat-specific genomic conservation.
Highlights
Thermus thermophilus, which grows optimally at around 70 to 75°C, was first isolated from Mine Hot Spring in Japan in 1968 (1, 2)
A JSpecies analysis (14) revealed that the genome sequences of bacterial strains from Arima Hot Spring showed average nucleotide identities (ANIs) of $99.21% to each other but of #97.86% to six strains originating from Mine Hot Spring (HB8, HB27 [4], HC11 [5], HB5002 [7], HB5008 [7], and HB5018 [6])
All four T. thermophilus strains reported in this paper are associated with BioProject accession number PRJDB7414
Summary
Thermus thermophilus, which grows optimally at around 70 to 75°C, was first isolated from Mine Hot Spring in Japan in 1968 (1, 2).
