Genome Sequence of Plesiomonas shigelloides Strain 302-73 (Serotype O1).

ABSTRACT: Plesiomonas shigelloides, the only species of the genus, is an emergent pathogenic bacterium associated with human diarrheal and extraintestinal disease. We present the whole-genome sequence analysis of the representative strain for the O1 serotype (strain 302-73), providing a tool for studying bacterial outbreaks, virulence factors, and accurate diagnostic methods.
