Abstract

ABSTRACTChromobacterium sp. nov. strains MWU13-2610 and MWU14-2602 were isolated from cranberry bogs in the Cape Cod National Seashore. These nonpigmented bacteria represent two new presumptive species of the rapidly growing genus Chromobacterium. Gene homologs are present for multiple antibiotic resistance, virulence functions, and prophages.

Highlights

  • Chromobacterium sp. nov. strains MWU13-2610 and MWU14-2602 were isolated from cranberry bogs in the Cape Cod National Seashore

  • Chromobacterium sp. nov. strain MWU13-2610 and Chromobacterium sp. nov. strain MWU14-2602 were isolated from native cranberry bogs at Race Point and High Head at the Cape Cod National Seashore in Massachusetts

  • The genomes were sequenced at the Arizona State University College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) Genomics Core facility using an Illumina MiSeq platform
