Whole genome sequencing of nine Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains encoding (Pir) toxin-like genes from shrimp cultures in northern Peru using Oxford Nanopore technology.

Nine Peruvian isolates of Vibrio parahaemolyticus were characterized through sequencing, revealing the presence of simple sequence repeat, Pir toxin-like genes, and genes associated with antibiotic resistance, toxic components, and transposable elements. These findings expand our understanding of the genetic diversity, disease resistance, and virulence in cultivated shrimp populations in Peru.

Near-Complete Genome Sequence of White Spot Syndrome Virus Infecting Cultivated Shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) in Peru.

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infects a broad range of aquatic animals, including the shrimp Penaeus vannamei. In this study, we report one genome sequence of WSSV present in shrimp on the north coast of Peru.

Genomic Sequences and Analysis of Five SARS-CoV-2 Variants Obtained from Patients in Lambayeque, Peru.

Here, we report the genomic sequences of five severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains obtained from nasopharyngeal samples from five tested coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-infected patients from the Lambayeque region in Peru during early April 2020.
