The first complete genome sequence of species Shewanella decolorationis, from a bioremediation competent strain Ni1-3.

ABSTRACT: Shewanella decolorationis are Gram-negative γ-Proteobacteria with environmental bioremediation potential because they can perform anaerobic respiration using various types of pollutants as terminal electron acceptors. So far, three isolated and cultured strains of S. decolorationis have been reported. However, no complete S. decolorationis genome has been published yet, which limited exploring their metabolism and feasibility in application. Here, S. decolorationis Ni1-3 isolated from an electroplating wastewater treatment plant showed strong reduction capabilities on azo dyes and oxidized metals. In order to construct the complete genome, high-quality whole-genome sequencing of strain Ni1-3 were performed by using both Nanopore MinION and Illumina NovaSeq platforms, from which the first c
