Draft Genome Sequence of Chryseobacterium mucoviscidosis sp. nov. Strain VT16-26, Isolated from the Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid of a Patient with Cystic Fibrosis.

We report here the draft genome sequence of Chryseobacterium mucoviscidosis VT16-26, a novel bacterium isolated from the lungs of a patient with cystic fibrosis. The genome was composed of 4,403,956 bp and had 36.2% G+C content. We detected 4,048 genes with predicted protein-coding functions, including those associated with antibiotic resistance and virulence.
