Pseudovibrio ascidiaceicola 5337, a marine bacterial symbiont of the ascidian gut with unusual genome features

We isolated Pseudovibrio ascidiaceicola strain 5337, a gut bacterium of the ascidian Ciona robusta, from Mission Bay, San Diego. The genomic assembly is 6.94 Mb and 99.99% complete, comprising 22 contigs and 6,613 protein-coding genes. Unicycler identified seven circular contigs, and PHASTEST identified 11 prophage regions, including two gene transfer agents.
