Key Points

To sequence and characterize the genome of Pseudomonas sp. WMBT8 isolated from a specific fish species.
Isolated bacterium from the gastrointestinal tract of Myoxocephalus thompsonii.
Conducted DNA sequencing of the isolate.
Analyzed genome size and GC content.
The complete genome is 6.1 Mb in size.
The genome consists of a single circular structure.
GC content is measured at 61%.

Implication

Research reports the genome sequence of a bacterium from freshwater fish, indicating its potential ecological role.

Abstract

We report here the genome sequence of the bacterium Pseudomonas sp. WMBT8 isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of the glacial relic freshwater fish Myoxocephalus thompsonii (deepwater sculpin). DNA sequencing results showed that strain WMBT8 had a single circular genome of 6.1 Mb with a GC content of 61%.
