Abstract
We report here the 6.0-Mb draft genome assembly of Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea strain HI1 using Roche 454 and PacBio single-molecule real-time hybrid-sequencing analysis. This strain is of biological importance since it has the capacity to induce the settlement and metamorphosis of the serpulid polychaete Hydroides elegans and the coral Pocillopora damicornis.
Highlights
Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea strain HI1 was isolated from biofilm in a seawater table at the Kewalo Marine Laboratory (Honolulu, HI, USA) [1] and identified from 16S rDNA sequencing
There are 2 draft genomes published for P. luteoviolacea in NCBI: P. luteoviolacea 2ta16 and P. luteoviolacea ATCC 29581 [2]
P. luteoviolacea ATCC 29581 appears to have been misclassified based on a 16S rRNA phylogenetic analysis and is recommended to be reclassified as a distinct species more closely related to Pseudoalteromonas ulvae [2]
Summary
Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea strain HI1 was isolated from biofilm in a seawater table at the Kewalo Marine Laboratory (Honolulu, HI, USA) [1] and identified from 16S rDNA sequencing. P. luteoviolacea ATCC 29581 appears to have been misclassified based on a 16S rRNA phylogenetic analysis and is recommended to be reclassified as a distinct species more closely related to Pseudoalteromonas ulvae [2]. P. luteoviolacea HI1, has been studied for its effects on the settlement and metamorphosis of the biofouling serpulid polychaete Hydroides elegans [1, 8, 9] and the coral Pocillopora damicornis [10].
