Interpretive Summary: Vibrio diabolicus is a marine bacterium that was first isolated from deep sea hydrothermal fields in the East Pacific Rise, but subsequently recovered from many marine environments worldwide. This paper reports the results of DNA sequencing of the genome of Vibrio diabolicus strain 3098. Results showed that the DNA was associated with two chromosomes and a plasmid. A unique cluster of genes was also identified.

Technical Abstract: Vibrio diabolicus 3098 is a marine bacterium and a member of the Gamma-Proteobacteria in the family Vibrionaceae. We report here a draft whole genome sequence of 5,170,702 bp, with a G+C content of 44.8%, and 4,829 predicted coding sequences divided into two chromosomes and a plasmid.
