Abstract

We report here the complete genome sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae strain YH43, isolated from sweet potato. The genome consists of a single circular chromosome of 5,520,319 bp in length. It carries 8 copies of rRNA operons, 86 tRNA genes, 5,154 protein-coding genes, and the nif gene cluster for nitrogen fixation.

Highlights

  • The genus Klebsiella belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae

  • K. pneumoniae is a free-living bacterium, which can be found in soil, water, and a wide range of plants and animals, including humans

  • While K. pneumoniae is the medically most important species in this genus, the organism is known as a nitrogenfixing bacterium in agriculture [1,2,3,4,5,6]
