Indiscriminate use of antibiotics in treatment strategies of infections caused by opportunistic pathogen, Serratia marcescens has made the specimen multidrug resistant (MDR). The present study is focused to identify novel metaclones that selectively target quorum sensing mediated virulence factors of S. marcescens through culture independent approach. Metagenomic DNA library was constructed for...

Variovorax paradoxus VAI-C was isolated due to its ability utilize acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as the sole source of carbon, energy, and nitrogen. Here, we present a hybrid assembly V. genome sequence, consisting primary chromosome, secondary chromid, plasmid.
