Abstract
Members of the marine genus Pseudoalteromonas have attracted great interest because of their ability to produce a large number of biologically active substances. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans Hao 2018, a strain isolated from an abalone breeding environment, using second-generation Illumina and third-generation PacBio sequencing technologies. Illumina sequencing offers high quality and short reads, while PacBio technology generates long reads. The scaffolds of the two platforms were assembled to yield a complete genome sequence that included two circular chromosomes and one circular plasmid. Transcriptomic data for Pseudoalteromonas were not available. We therefore collected comprehensive RNA-seq data using Illumina sequencing technology from a fermentation culture of P. agarivorans Hao 2018. Researchers studying the evolution, environmental adaptations and biotechnological applications of Pseudoalteromonas may benefit from our genomic and transcriptomic data to analyze the function and expression of genes of interest.

Background & SummaryBacteria in the marine environment are an essential component of marine ecosystems[1]
Considering that marine bacteria inhabit a wide range of niches with pervasive and dynamic chemical and physical gradients, they use various mechanisms for physiological adaptations, such as osmolyte accumulation, unique structures of biomacromolecules, and production of natural bioactive metabolites and exopolysaccharides[3]
The members of the genus Pseudoalteromonas, which is gram-negative, aerobic, non-fermentative, heterotrophic, and halophilic, can be considered to be obligate marine microorganisms. This genus contains more than 40 validly described species[7]. These species are widespread in marine microbial ecosystems and produce a large number of biologically active substances[8]
