Partial genomic characterization of Chromobacterium piscinae from India reveals multi drug resistance

Species of genus Chromobacterium have been isolated from diverse geographical settings, which exhibits significant metabolic flexibility as well as biotechnological and pathogenic properties. This study describes the isolation, characterization, draft assembly, and detailed sequence analysis of Chromobacterium piscinae strain W1B-CG-NIBSM isolated from water samples from multi use community pond. The organism was characterized by biochemical tests, Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI TOF–MS) and partial genome sequencing. The partial genomic data of Chromobacterium pisciane isolate W1B NIBSM strain was submitted to GenBank with Bio project number PRJNA803347 and accession no CP092474. An integrated genome analysis of Chromobacterium piscinae has been accomplished with PATRIC which indicates good quality genome. DNA sequencing using the illumina HiSeq 4000 system generated total length of 4,155,481 bp with 63 contig with G + C content is 62.69
