Abstract

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Vibrio cyclitrophicus NCT10V, cultivated from the copepod Acartia tonsa, collected from coastal surface waters of the western North Atlantic Ocean. The assembly is 5,638,575 bp long and has 44 contigs, a GC content of 43.2%, and 5,044 protein coding sequences.

Highlights

Vibrio spp. are Gram-negative, curved, rod-shaped, motile cells [1] that often associate with marine invertebrates and particles, and some strains are linked with pathogenic and zoonotic diseases [2,3,4,5]
A symbiotic polysaccharide gene cluster including the downstream regulator gene sypG, a mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin (MSHA) gene cluster, and several chitinase-encoding genes were identified, indicating that NCT10V is a member of the “L-strain” lineage that commonly associates with marine animal hosts and large particles and forms biofilms [16,17,18,19]
This whole-genome shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession number VUKB00000000
