Abstract
Methanobrevibacter olleyae YLM1 is a hydrogenotrophic methanogen, isolated from the rumen of a lamb. Its genome has been sequenced to provide information on the genomic diversity of rumen methanogens and support the development of approaches to reduce methane formation by ruminants.
Highlights
Methanobrevibacter olleyae YLM1 is a hydrogenotrophic methanogen, isolated from the rumen of a lamb
Members of the genus Methanobrevibacter are the dominant methanogens found in the digestive tract of ruminant livestock, and two different clades (M. gottschalkii and M. ruminantium) of closely related species constitute the bulk of the population [1,2,3]
We report the draft genome sequence of the hydrogenotrophic methanogen M. olleyae YLM1, which was isolated from the rumen of a lamb [6]
Summary
Methanobrevibacter olleyae YLM1 is a hydrogenotrophic methanogen, isolated from the rumen of a lamb. We report the draft genome sequence of the hydrogenotrophic methanogen M. olleyae YLM1, which was isolated from the rumen of a lamb [6]. The genome sequence of M. olleyae YLM1 was determined using pyrosequencing of 3-kb mate-paired libraries on a 454 GS FLX platform with titanium chemistry (Macrogen, South Korea) and combined with reads from an Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform (BGI, China), where a 2-kb mate-paired library was constructed with paired-end sequencing of 90-bp reads.
