Draft Genome Sequence of the First Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. quasipneumoniae Isolate from a Bloodstream Infection

Klebsiella quasipneumoniae is a recently described species, formerly identified as K. pneumoniae phylogroup KpII. Information on pathogenic and virulence potential of this species are lacking. We sequenced the genome of a hypermucoviscous K. quasipneumoniae clinical isolate showing a virulence genes...
