ABSTRACT Thirteen bacterial isolates of Tenacibaculum maritimum were sequenced and assembled. The strains were isolated from four disease outbreaks in farmed marine fish in Norway. Eight isolates were from Cyclopterus lumpus (lumpfish), and five were from Scophthalmus maximus (turbot). Overall, sequence similarity did not correlate with host species or geographic location.
