A collection of 32 Burkholderia cenocepacia genomes for genome mining

Burkholderia genus is a diverse group of Gram-negative bacteria found in soil, water, man-made products, plants, animals and as opportunistic pathogens in multiple hosts. The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is a notorious group of Burkholderia species which can cause devastating infections in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). A collection of 32 Burkholderia cenocepacia strains had their genomes sequenced for further investigation of virulence and antimicrobial potential. Bruyniks, N (2020).
