# Draft genome for Flavobacterium psychrophilum isolates from diseased coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in Chile

## TL;DR

This paper presents the draft genomes of six bacteria isolated from sick coho salmon in Chile, offering new insights into this fish pathogen.

## Contribution

The study provides the first genomic insights into Flavobacterium psychrophilum from coho salmon in Chile.

## Key findings

- Draft genome sequences of six Flavobacterium psychrophilum isolates were generated.
- The isolates were recovered from diseased coho salmon in Chile.
- This is the first genomic study of this pathogen in this host and region.

## Abstract

We present the draft genome sequences of six Flavobacterium psychrophilum isolates recovered from diseased coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) cultured by two farms in Chile. This study provides the first detailed insights into the genomic characteristics of this fish pathogen recovered from a host with limited information and cultured in Chile.
