Abstract

Edwardsiella piscicida CK41 is a fish-pathogenic Gram-negative bacterium isolated from diseased flounder in the Republic of Korea. Here, we report the genome sequence of E. piscicida CK41, comprising one chromosome of 3.76 Mbp and one plasmid of 72.7 kbp. A total of 3,406 protein-coding genes, 98 tRNAs, and 25 rRNAs are predicted to be present in the genome.
