ABSTRACT
The bacterium Klebsiella aerogenes is an opportunistic pathogen that often infects hospitalized patients and those who are immunocompromised. K. aerogenes in some cases can become resistant to antibiotic treatment. Being a potential therapeutic, Metamorpho is a T4-like myophage targeting K. aerogenes.
Acinetobacter baumannii
is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that is frequently associated with nosocomial infections. Bacteriophages infecting
A. baumannii
can be used as effective agents to control these infections. Here, we announce the complete genome sequence of the lytic bacteriophage LZ35 infecting
A. baumannii
isolates.
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is an opportunistic pathogen that commonly causes foodborne illness. Study of bacteriophages against this pathogen could be useful to develop alternative treatment approaches. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of LL11, a T7-like podophage that infects ETEC.
Aeromonas hydrophila is the causative agent of motile aeromonad septicemia. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of highly virulent A.
hydrophila strain D4, which was isolated from a diseased blunt-snout bream in China.
Here we present the complete genome sequence ofBartonella ancashensisstrain 20.00, isolated from the blood of a Peruvian patient with verruga peruana, known as Carrion’s disease.Bartonella ancashensisis a Gram-negative bacillus, phylogenetically most similar toBartonella bacilliformis, the causative agent of Oroya fever and verruga peruana.
ABSTRACT
Burkholderia glumae is the causative agent of grain and seedling rot in rice and of bacterial wilt in many field crops. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of B. glumae BGR1 isolated from a diseased rice panicle in Korea.
ABSTRACT
Haemophilus parasuis is the causative agent of Glässer's disease, which produces big losses in swine populations worldwide. H. parasuis SH0165, belonging to the dominant serovar 5 in China, is a clinically isolated strain with high-level virulence. Here, we report the first completed genome sequence of this species.
