Abstract:
We report the complete genome sequence of Morganella morganii CTX51T, a strain isolated from the resected tumor of a patient with cecal colorectal adenocarcinoma of the cecum. The genome comprises a circular chromosome of 4.19 Mbp, with an overall GC content of 50.4% and one circular plasmid of 8.48 kbp.
