Abstract
Ralstonia insidiosa is an opportunistic pathogen and a strong biofilm producer. Here, we present the complete genome sequences of R. insidiosa FC1138 and ATCC 49129. Both strains have two circular chromosomes of approximately 3.9 and 1.9 Mb and a 50-kb plasmid. ATCC 49129 also possesses a megaplasmid of approximately 318 kb.
Highlights
Ralstonia insidiosa is a Gram-negative, nonfermentative, aerobic bacillus, along with the closely related better-known species Ralstonia pickettii, widely present in aqueous environments, including municipal water and medical water purification systems [1,2,3]
Only eight fully assembled genomes of Ralstonia are available in the NCBI database, which do not include any from R. insidiosa
We present the complete and annotated genome sequences of R. insidiosa FC1138 and type strain ATCC 49129
Summary
Ralstonia insidiosa is a Gram-negative, nonfermentative, aerobic bacillus, along with the closely related better-known species Ralstonia pickettii, widely present in aqueous environments, including municipal water and medical water purification systems [1,2,3]. Ralstonia insidiosa FC1138 was isolated from a fresh-cut produce-processing plant and determined to be a strong biofilm producer [6] that can promote biofilm formation by Escherichia coli O157:H7 [7] and other foodborne pathogens in dual-species biofilms. Only eight fully assembled genomes of Ralstonia are available in the NCBI database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/), which do not include any from R. insidiosa. We present the complete and annotated genome sequences of R. insidiosa FC1138 and type strain ATCC 49129.
