Genome sequence of Staphylococcus epidermidis H1G7 from hilsa ( Tenualosa ilisha ) gut
ABSTRACT We report the genome of Staphylococcus epidermidis strain H1G7 from hilsa ( Tenualosa Ilisha ) fish gut. Nanopore sequencing produced a 2.5-Mb assembly (32% GC, two contigs). The genome encodes metal–chelate transport, short-chain fatty acid production, and biosynthetic clusters and lacks virulent factors, revealing genomic features potentially associated with beneficial host interactions.
