Non-contiguous finished genome sequence and description of Bartonella saheliensis sp. nov. from the blood of Gerbilliscus gambianus from Senegal

摘要

Bartonella saheliensis strain 077 (= CSUR B644T;?=?DSM 28003T) is a new bacterial species isolated from blood of the rodent Gerbilliscus gambianus captured in the Sine-Saloum region of Senegal. In this work we describe the characteristics of this microorganism, as well as the complete sequence of the genome and its annotation. Its genome has 2?327?299 bp (G+C content 38.4%) and codes for 2015 proteins and 53 RNA genes.
