PAMC22778 from Kara sea sediment reveals biosynthetic gene clusters with potential biocontrol-associated secondary metabolites
Paras Paudel, Byeollee Kim, Sang-Hee Jung, Yung Mi Lee, Jun Hyuck Lee, Tae-Jin Oh ABSTRACT
We report the complete genome of
Serratia plymuthica
PAMC22778, a soil-associated bacterium with biocontrol potential. The complete genome comprises 5,765,014 bp, including one circular chromosome of 5,661,166 bp and one plasmid of 103,848 bp, with a GC content of 55.54%, and encodes biosynthetic gene clusters for siderophores, prodigiosin, and biosurfactants, implicated in iron acquisition and antimicrobial activity, highlighting its potential as a biocontrol agent.
