title: Genome sequencing, annotation and comparative genomic analysis of Shigella dysenteriae strain SD1D. creator: Kaur, Gurwinder creator: Sathyabama, Sathyaseelan creator: Arora, Amit creator: Verma, Sheenam creator: Mubin, Nida creator: Agrewala, J N creator: Mayilraj, Shanmugam description: Shigellosis is an acute form of gastroenteritis caused by the bacteria belonging to the genus Shigella. It is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in children. Shigella belongs to the family Enterobactericeae, which is a Gram-negative and rod shaped bacterium. In the present study, we report the draft genome of Shigella dysenteriae strain SD1D, which was isolated from the stool sample of a healthy individual. publisher: London : BioMed Central date: 2014 type: Article type: PeerReviewed relation: http://www.gutpathogens.com/content/6/1/28 identifier: Kaur, Gurwinder and Sathyabama, Sathyaseelan and Arora, Amit and Verma, Sheenam and Mubin, Nida and Agrewala, J N and Mayilraj, Shanmugam (2014) Genome sequencing, annotation and comparative genomic analysis of Shigella dysenteriae strain SD1D.
