Characterization of novel taxa equally to this work within this family is of great importance in order to understand the associated health Specialty section: risk and provide better treatment options. The aim of the present study was to This article was submitted to characterize a Gram-negative bacterial strain (CCUG 66741) belonging to the family Evolutionary and Genomic Enterobacteriaceae, isolated from a wound infection of an adult patient, in Sweden.
