Abstract

ABSTRACTWe describe here the draft genome sequence of the cyanobacterium Tychonema bourrellyi, assembled from a metagenome of a nonaxenic culture. The strain (FEM_GT703) was isolated from a freshwater sample taken from Lake Garda, Italy. The draft genome sequence represents the first assembled T. bourrellyi strain.

Highlights

  • We describe here the draft genome sequence of the cyanobacterium Tychonema bourrellyi, assembled from a metagenome of a nonaxenic culture

  • A single filament of Tychonema was isolated under the microscope and, after being washed repeatedly with Z8 Cellstar medium (Greiner Bio-One GmbH, Germany), was incubated at 20°C at constant-light illumination (3)

  • The Tychonema culture was filtered through 0.22-␮m filters, and the PowerWater DNA isolation kit (Qiagen) was used to extract the DNA

Summary

Introduction

We describe here the draft genome sequence of the cyanobacterium Tychonema bourrellyi, assembled from a metagenome of a nonaxenic culture. We reconstructed the draft genome of T. bourrellyi from a nonaxenic culture. The culture originated from a water sample collected in summer 2014 by vertical tows from 20 to 30 m to the surface with a plankton net at Lake Garda.
