is commonly found in soil and has various antibacterial activities against animal and plant pathogens. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of strain M4019, isolated from a euryhaline aquaculture pond water in Yong-An, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan. This pond-water-derived isolate, unlike common soil-derived isolates, may provide potentially different adaptations and antimicrobial cues for future research.

- Gonorrhea is increasingly becoming a global health concern due to antibiotic resistance, prompting the need for new treatment options.
- This study investigates antimicrobial peptides (AMP) derived from fish, specifically flatfish and striped bass, for their effectiveness against gonorrhea-causing bacteria (GC).
- Results indicate that certain AMP, like Pardaxin-based (PB2) and Piscidin-based (PIS and TP4), can significantly inhibit GC growth and biofilm formation, suggesting their potential as new antibiotic alternatives.
The mucosal microbiome plays a role in regulating host health. The research conducted in humans and mice has governed and detailed the information on microbiome-host immunity interactions. Teleost fish, different from humans and mice, lives in and relies on the aquatic environment and is subjected to environmental variation.

Aeromonas hydrophila is the most common opportunistic pathogen that plagues freshwater and euryhaline fishponds. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of A. hydrophila strain LP0103, which was isolated from a bacterial septicemia outbreak among suckermouth catfish (Pterygoplichthys pardalis) at Lotus Pond in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan.
