Complete genome sequence of Serratia plymuthica PAMC22778 from Kara sea sediment reveals biosynthetic gene clusters with potential biocontrol-associated secondary metabolites

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: 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.
