Citrobacter koseri is an opportnistic pathogen can cause a variety of diseases. Though the mortality rate of C. koseri infections is high but there is a paucity of clinical information on them. Furthermore, the genomic features of this species are poorly studied. Herein, we presented a patient with endogenous endophthalmitis secondary to septicaemia, and collected a C. koseri isolate, CKNJ, from the blood of the patient. Whole genome sequencing revealed that the CKNJ harbors no plasmid and codes for 67 putative virulence factors. Whole genome SNP-based phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain CKNJ was close to the strains with same isolation sites. Compared to the other sequenced C. koseri chromosomes, CKNJ contains several strain-variable regions, including one prophage and two large genomic islands. The sequencing of the first complete genome of a clinical strain from China should reinforce our understanding of the genomic features and pathogenicity of this invasive infection-causing C. koseri with clinical significance.
