Genome Structure of the Opportunistic Pathogen Paracoccus yeei (Alphaproteobacteria) and Identification of Putative Virulence Factors

Bacteria of the genus Paracoccus are common components of the microbiomes of many naturally- and anthropogenically shaped environments. One species, Paracoccus yeei, is unique within the genus because it is associated with opportunistic human infections. Therefore, strains of P. yeei may serve as an...
