Parameters for data collection	Aeromonas dhakensis 1P11S3 was isolated from the spleen of cultured striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypopthalmus) in Malaysia. Genomic DNA extraction and sequencing were performed.
Description of data collection	Aeromonas dhakensis 1P11S3 was able to grow in M9 agar with myo-inositol as a sole carbon source. Genomic DNA was isolated from a pure culture of A.dhakensis 1P11S3
Data source location	Aeromonas dhakensis 1P11S3 was isolated from the spleen of cultured striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypopthalmus) in Tumpat, Kelantan, Malaysia. Latitude and longitude: 6.196106 N 102.148057 E
