Fluorescent nucleoside analogue ABN is readily detected at the single-molecule level and retains a quantum yield >50% in duplex DNA oligonucleotides.

Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 10 marine Pseudoalteromonas bacteria which were isolated, assembled, and annotated by undergraduate students participating in a marine microbial genomics course. Genomic comparisons suggest that 7 of the 10 strains are novel isolates, providing a resource for future marine microbiology investigations.
