genome assembly for two isolates using long-read Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencing.

The oomycete is a common pathogen of the Solanaceae and Cucurbitaceae families. An improved assembly for the reference isolate LT1534 was constructed using Oxford Nanopore Technologies and Illumina data. Additionally, an unpolished assembly was produced for the European isolate Pc285 collected on chili pepper using Oxford Nanopore reads.

Characterisation of hydrocarbon degradation, biosurfactant production, and biofilm formation in Serratia sp. Tan611: a new strain isolated from industrially contaminated environment in Algeria.

A novel bacterial strain was isolated from industrially contaminated waste water. In the presence of crude oil, this strain was shown to reduce the rate of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) up to 97.10% in 24 h.

Complete Genome Sequence of sp. Strain Nx66, Isolated from Waters Contaminated with Petrochemicals in El Saf-Saf Valley, Algeria.

sp. strain Nx66 was isolated from waters contaminated by petrochemical effluents collected in Algeria. Its genome was sequenced using Illumina MiSeq (2 × 150-bp read pairs) and Oxford Nanopore (long reads) technologies and was assembled using Unicycler.
