Genome sequence of Lactococcus garvieae UNIUD074, isolated in Italy from a lactococcosis outbreak

J Bacteriol. 2011 Jul;193(14):3684-5. doi: 10.1128/JB.05210-11. Epub 2011 May 20.

Abstract

Lactococcus garvieae is the etiological agent of lactococcosis disease, affecting many cultured fish species worldwide. In addition, this bacterium is currently considered a potential zoonotic microorganism since it is known to cause several opportunistic human infections. Here we present the draft genome sequence of the L. garvieae strain UNIUD074.
