Draft genome sequence of a bacterial plant pathogen Erwinia pyrifoliae strain EpK1/15 isolated from an apple twig showing black shoot blight

국문 초록 (Abstract)

Erwinia pyrifoliae는 그람 음성 세균으로 사과와 배에 가지검은마름병을 일으킨다. E. pyrifoliae EpK1/15 균주가 병징을 보이는 경기도 포천지역의 사과나무 가지에서 2014년도에 분리되었다. 본 논문에서는 PacBio RS II 플랫폼을 이용하여 E. pyrifoliae EpK1/15 균주의 전체 유전체를 분석하여 보고한다. 본 균주는 G + C 비율이 53.4%이며, 4,027,225 bp로 구성된 염색체와 G + C 비율이 50.3%이며, 48,456 bp로 구성된 plasmid를 지니고 있다. 이들 염색체와 plasmid DNA에서 3,798개의 단백질 코딩 유전자, 22개의 rRNA, 77개의 tRNA, 13개의 non-coding RNA 및 231개의 위유전자(pseudo gene)가 확인되었다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Erwinia pyrifoliae is a Gram-negative bacterium causing black shoot blight in apple and Asian pear trees. E. pyrifoliae strain EpK1/15 was isolated in 2014 from an apple twig from the Pocheon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. In this study, we report the draft genome sequence of E. pyrifoliae EpK1/15 using PacBio RS II platform. The draft genome is comprised of a circular chromosome with 4,027,225 bp and 53.4% G + C content and a plasmid with 48,456 bp and 50.3% G + C content. The draft genome includes 3,798 protein-coding genes, 22 rRNA genes, 77 tRNA genes, 13 non-coding RNA genes, and 231 pseudo genes.
