Abstract

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the pathogenic Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. masoucida strain RFAS1, isolated from black rockfish and showing signs of furunculosis. Sequencing with the PacBio platform yielded a circular chromosome of 4,783,004 bp and two plasmids (70,968 bp and 63,563 bp) harboring 4,411, 67, and 71 protein-coding genes, respectively.
