Whole genome sequence data of SAU1, isolated from Tilapia ().

SAU1 was isolated from Tilapia () that was cultured in a Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS) in Bangladesh. The genome was sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform and assembled using the de novo genome assembly method. The draft genome was annotated and virulence factors, antimicrobial resistance related genes, CRISPER-Cas systems, metabolic pathways, and biosynthetic gene clusters were predicted. The genome is approximately 4.1 mb in size. The assembled genome comprises 4,105,655 bp with GC content of 61.63 %, which includes 3,823 protein-coding genes and 25 pseudogenes. Identifying the characteristics of the genome can help us understand its harmful effects and analyze the biocontrol mechanism in aquaculture systems.
