An unusual case of infective spondylodiscitis caused by Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus: molecular characterization by whole-genome sequencing.

Spondylodiscitis is an infectious inflammation that affects the intervertebral disc and adjacent structures. Treating infective spondylodiscitis is often challenging due to the lack of specific symptoms. Here we present an unusual case of infective spondylodiscitis caused by Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus.

Complete Genome Analysis of Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni Isolated from Bloodstream Infection.

We report here the complete genome analysis of a clinical Campylobacter jejuni strain sequenced by a hybrid assembly approach. A hybrid assembly approach provided a complete genome sequence of C. jejuni that contains a 1,681,375-bp chromosome and 47,467-bp plasmid carrying various virulence and antimicrobial resistance determinants.
