Case reports demonstrate genomic methods identifying emerging Kosakonia pathogens in posttraumatic infections, highlighting their significance.
We describe 2 plant-associated posttraumatic Kosakonia infections in Argentina. Facing biochemical and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry limitations, we used whole-genome sequencing to successfully identify K. cowanii and K. oryzae as the causative agents. Our data highlight the crucial role of genomics in correctly identifying these underestimated emerging pathogens.
