Mucispirillum schaedleri ASF 457 variant MCS was provided to Bärbel Stecher by Charles River Laboratories, Inc. (Wilmington, MA, USA). Nucleic acids were extracted using a phenol-chloroform-based extraction method (80 (link)). DNAs were sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq2000 with 3-kb mate pair libraries and MinION technology (Oxford Nanopore Technologies, Oxford, United Kingdom). Illumina data were quality filtered with prinseq-lite (81 (link)), and MinION data were filtered with poretools (82 (link)) and prinseq-lite. De novo genome assembly was performed using SPAdes (83 (link)).
