Draft Genome Sequence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus PSU5579, Isolated during an Outbreak of Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease in Thailand.

Abstract

Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus strain PSU5579, isolated from a shrimp hatchery in southern Thailand during an outbreak of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND). The genome contains 44 contigs with a sequence length of 5,229,426 bp, 4,861 coding sequences, and a G+C content of 45.3%.
