Complete Genome Sequence of a Legionella longbeachae Serogroup 1 Strain Isolated from a Patient with Legionnaires' Disease.

ABSTRACT: Legionella longbeachae serogroup 1, predominantly found in soil and composted plant material, causes the majority of cases of Legionnaires' disease (LD) in New Zealand. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of an L. longbeachae serogroup 1 (sg1) isolate derived from a patient hospitalized with LD in Christchurch, New Zealand.
