Complete genome sequence of Picosynechococcus sp. strain NKBG15041c, a fast-growing marine cyanobacterium

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Picosynechococcus sp. strain NKBG15041c, which was isolated from coastal seawater in Okinawa prefecture, Japan. Additionally, we determined the complete sequences of three associated plasmids. The genomic DNA was sequenced using both Illumina and PacBio platforms. Genome assembly, integrating PacBio long reads and Illumina short reads, was performed using B-assembler. The longest circular contig represents the complete genome of P. NKBG1504c, comprising 2,845,435 bp with a G+C content of 49.8%. The three circular contigs showed high homology with plasmids from Synechococcus sp. NIES-970.
