title: Draft genome sequence of the virulent strain 01-B526 of the fish pathogen Aeromonas salmonicida.
abstract: Aeromonas salmonicida is an important fish pathogen, mainly of salmonids. This bacterium causes a disease named furunculosis, which is particularly detrimental for the aquaculture industry. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of A. salmonicida 01-B526, a strain isolated from a brook trout that is more virulent than A. salmonicida reference strain A449, for which a genome sequence is available.
