title: Genome sequence of Cronobacter sakazakii E899, a strain associated with human illness.
abstract: Cronobacter has caused numerous illnesses in neonates, infants, and children. Here we report the draft genome of Cronobacter sakazakii E899. Whole-genome sequence analysis of Cronobacter strains provides a tool for understanding the genomic regions specific to each individual species.
