Complete Genome Sequence of Ichthyobacterium seriolicida JBKA-6T, Isolated from Yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) Affected by Bacterial Hemolytic Jaundice.

ABSTRACT: Ichthyobacterium seriolicida is a fish bacterial pathogen that causes hemolytic jaundice in farmed yellowtail in Japan. To understand more about the characteristics of this bacterium, we determined its complete genome sequence. Two hemolysin genes which may be important for its pathogenicity were identified in the I. seriolicida genome.
