Interpretive Summary: The genomes of seven Aeromonas veronii strains isolated from tissues of healthy or diseased channel catfish in Alabama (USA) fish farms were sequenced and annotated. These genome sequences will enable comparative analyses to determine the roles these bacteria play in aquaculture and fish disease and development of new management strategies to prevent fish diseases.
