Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains L2171 and L2181 were isolated from a Penaeus vannamei shrimp hatchery. Both strains carry the pVA plasmid harboring the PirAB genes encoding the binary PirAB toxins that cause the acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) in cultured shrimp. The strains also harbor multidrug resistance (MDR) and a repertoire of virulence factor genes. Our goal was to determine their complete genome sequences and perform a comprehensive analysis of their genetic characteristics. Therefore, the genomes of two strains, which are highly virulent to shrimp were sequenced by Illumina and the PacBio platforms. These data contribute to a better understanding of V. parahaemolyticus and its role as a pathogen in commercially important species such as farmed shrimp, providing valuable insights for disease management in aquaculture.
期刊介绍:
Data in Brief provides a way for researchers to easily share and reuse each other''s datasets by publishing data articles that: -Thoroughly describe your data, facilitating reproducibility. -Make your data, which is often buried in supplementary material, easier to find. -Increase traffic towards associated research articles and data, leading to more citations. -Open up doors for new collaborations. Because you never know what data will be useful to someone else, Data in Brief welcomes submissions that describe data from all research areas.
