Abstract

We report the complete circular genome assembly of Elizabethkingia anophelis (Flavobacteriales) generated with the ONT and Illumina sequences from a laboratory-reared Aedes aegypti mosquito. This genome sequence does not belong to the lineage of known isolates from Anopheles mosquitoes, indicating that E. anophelis is genomically diverse across mosquito disease vectors.

Keywords: Aedes aegypti; Elizabethkingia; diversity; long-read genome assembly.
