Draft Genome Sequence of "Candidatus Spirobacillus cienkowskii," a Pathogen of Freshwater Daphnia Species, Reconstructed from Hemolymph Metagenomic Reads.

ABSTRACT: We report here the near-complete genome sequence of "Candidatus Spirobacillus cienkowskii," a spiral-shaped, red-pigmented uncultivated bacterial pathogen of Daphnia spp. The genome is 2.74 Mbp in size, has a GC content of 32.1%, and contains genes associated with bacterial motility and the production of carotenoids, which could explain the distinctive red color of hosts infected with this pathogen.
