Data Downloads

The Sanger Institute was funded by the USDA to sequence the genome of Streptomyces scabies strain 87.22 in collaboration with Rosemary Loria of the Department of Plant Pathology, Cornell University.

Published Genome Data

The finished chromosome is 10,148,695 bp with a G+C content of 71.45%. The publsihed, fully annotated genome is available from the EMBL/GenBank databases with accession number FN554889.

Shotgun and assembly data from this project are available from our FTP site.
