Draft Genome Sequence of Delftia tsuruhatensis Strain 45.2.2, Colonizer of Zebrafish, Danio rerio, Skin Mucus

Abstract

Delftia tsuruhatensis strain 45.2.2 is a member of the zebrafish, Danio rerio , skin mucus microbiota. Its genome is similar in size and GC content to those of other Delftia strains.

Genomic analysis of multidrug-resistant Delftia tsuruhatensis isolated from raw bovine milk

“…Previously, strains of D. tsuruhatensis species were isolated from a wide range of sources such as active sludge ( Shigematsu et al, 2003 ; Li et al, 2020 ), seawater ( Juárez-Jiménez et al, 2010 ), soil ( Zheng et al, 2007 ), rhizosphere ( Guo et al, 2016 ), rice husk and swine manure ( Chen et al, 2022 ), fish ( Danio rerio and Oreochromis niloticus ) ( Preena et al, 2020 ; Chaires et al, 2022 ), mice (inbred strain C57BL/6) ( Saffarian et al, 2016 ), and from human patients ( Preiswerk et al, 2011 ; Tabak et al, 2013 ; Ranc et al, 2018 ; Cheng et al, 2021 ; Cho et al, 2021 ). Notably, the isolation of five D. tsuruhatensis strains from raw milk was also reported by Elionora Hantsis-Zacharov and Malka Halpern in 2007 in Israel (Accession no.…”

“…Delftia tsuruhatensis was isolated from such animals as Danio rerio (Zebrafish: skin mucus) ( Chaires et al, 2022 ) and Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia: internal organs and injured eye) ( Soto-Rodriguez et al, 2013 ; Preena et al, 2020 ), laboratory mice (inbred strain C57BL/6: proximal colonic tissue) ( Saffarian et al, 2016 ), and even humans. D. tsuruhatensis was reported as an emergent opportunistic human pathogen.…”
