Complete genome sequence of human pathogen Kosakonia cowanii type strain 888-76^T.

ABSTRACT: Kosakonia cowanii type strain 888-76^T is a human pathogen which was originally isolated from blood as NIH group 42. In this study, we report the complete genome sequence of K. cowanii 888-76^T. 888-76^T has 1 chromosome and 2 plasmids with a total genome size of 4,857,567bp and C+G 56.15%. This genome sequence will not only help us to understand the virulence features of K. cowanii 888-76^T but also provide us the useful information for the study of evolution of Kosakonia genus.
