Kosakonia radicincitans  is a species within the new genus  Kosakonia . Many strains of this genus have been isolated from plants, but some strains are assumed to act as facultative human pathogens. In this study, an in-depth analysis of a  Kosakonia  isolate from human blood was performed. The strain was originally isolated from blood and identified as a member of the  Enterobacter cloacae  complex, exhibiting an atypical result in susceptibility testing. Therefore, the genetic background was examined, including phylogenetic classification and screening for virulence factors. Using whole-genome sequencing, the isolate was identified as a  K. radicincitans  strain, revealing a virulence gene cluster for yersiniabactin biosynthesis in contrast to all other strains of the species. Whole-genome sequencing was the perfect method for identifying putative virulence factors of a particular  Kosakonia  strain and will help distinguish beneficial strains from pathogenic strains in the future. To our knowledge, this is the first report of  Kosakonia -related bacteraemia from Europe.
