Microbiol Resour Announc. 2026 Apr 20:e0013826. doi: 10.1128/mra.00138-26. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe characterized the 4.8 Mbp genome of Escherichia coli H1G2, a B1 lineage isolated from the gut of Bangladesh's national fish, Hilsa (Tenualosa ilisha). The complete assembly reveals specialized genes for sugar metabolism and adhesion, facilitating niche-specific colonization, thereby providing insights into the microbial ecology of this commercially significant species' gastrointestinal tract.PMID:42003643 | DOI:10.1128/mra.00138-26
