Vibrio Parahaemolyticus Genomes with Antimicrobial Resistance Genes from Shrimp

Two whole-genome assemblies of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates from Pacific white shrimp, sequenced using the Nanopore platform. The dataset includes annotations for antimicrobial resistance genes, virulence factors, and mobile genetic elements. Author Md. Habib Ullah Masum uploaded the data to figshare on 2026-04 09.

Use Cases

• Comparative genomics of Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains based on the described genome assemblies
• Analysis of antimicrobial resistance gene distribution based on the identified vanT, vanY, tet, adeF, and CARB-18 genes
• Study of virulence and stress adaptation based on the annotated rpoS, rpoE, crp, hfq, and arcA genes
• Investigation of mobile genetic elements and horizontal gene transfer based on the description of their location adjacent to regulatory genes

Strengths

• Data is derived from high-quality, de novo genome assemblies as stated in the description
• Includes specific annotations for multiple antimicrobial resistance genes (vanT, vanY, tet, adeF, CARB-18) and virulence factors
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 18.4 KB, indicating limited scope
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data may reflect geographic and source bias inherent to the specific shrimp isolates from Bangladesh
