Kyrpides Keywords: obligate aerobic, human-pathogenic, endocarditis, Gram-positive, non-motile, Gordoniaceae, GEBA Gordonia bronchialis Tsukamura 1971 is the type species of the genus. G. bronchialis is a human-pathogenic organism that has been isolated from a large variety of human tissues. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. This is the first completed genome sequence of the family Gordoniaceae. The 5,290,012 bp long genome with its 4,944 protein-coding and 55 RNA genes is part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of G. bronchialis 3410T relative to the other type strains within the genus Gordonia. The tree was inferred from 1,446 aligned characters [21,22] of the 16S rRNA gene sequence under the maximum likelihood criterion [23] and rooted with the type strains of the neighboring genus Williamsia. The branches are scaled in terms of the expected number of substitutions per site. Numbers above branches are support values from 1,000 bootstrap replicates if larger than 60%.
