Shewanella algae and Morganella morganii Coinfection in Cobra-Bite Wounds: A Genomic Analysis

Life (Basel). 2021 Apr 10;11(4):329. doi: 10.3390/life11040329.

Abstract

Naja atra bites cause severe soft tissue injury and are prone to wound infections. The pathogens of Naja atra bite-wound infections are highly variable in different geographical regions. Here, we report the first coinfection with Shewanella algae and Morganella morganii from a Naja atra bite wound with resistome analysis using whole genome sequencing.

Keywords: Morganella morganii; Naja atra; Shewanella algae; coinfection; whole genome sequencing.
