## TL;DR

This paper reports the genome sequence of Vibrio harveyi strain TUMSAT-2019, isolated from a kuruma shrimp in Okinawa.

## Contribution

The study provides a new genome sequence of a Vibrio harveyi strain isolated from a shrimp farm in Okinawa.

- The genome of Vibrio harveyi TUMSAT-2019 is 5.7 Mbp in size.
- The genome consists of two chromosomes and no plasmid.

## Abstract

The Gram-negative bacterium Vibrio harveyi is a serious shrimp pathogen. Here, we present the genome sequence of Vibrio harveyi TUMSAT-2019, which was isolated from a kuruma shrimp (Penaeus japonicus) that originated from a shrimp farm in Okinawa Prefecture. The assembly totaled 5.7 Mbp, consisting of two chromosomes with no plasmid.

## Linked entities

- **Species:** Vibrio harveyi (taxon 669), Penaeus japonicus (taxon 27405)

## Full-text entities

- **Species:** Vibrio harveyi (species) [taxon 669], Penaeus japonicus (kuruma prawn, species) [taxon 27405]
