Abstract
This manuscript provides the description of the bacterial strain A621T characterized by Gram negative motile rods, presenting green circular colonies on TCBS. It was obtained from the skin of the sharpnose pufferfish Canthigaster figueredoi (Tetraodontidae Family), collected in Arraial do Cabo, located in the Rio de Janeiro region, Brazil. Optimum growth occurs at 20-28°C in the presence of 3% NaCl. The Genome sequence of the novel isolate consisted of 4.224Mb, 4431 coding genes and G + C content of 44.5%. Genomic taxonomy analysis based on average amino acid (AAI), genome-to-genome-distance (GGDH) and phylogenetic reconstruction placed (A621T= CBAS 741T = CAIM 1945T = CCMR 150T) into a new species of the genus Vibrio (Vibrio fluminensis sp. nov). The genome of the novel species contains four gene clusters (~ 56.17Kbp in total) coding for different types of bioactive compounds that hint to several possible ecological roles in the sharpnose pufferfish host.
