Genome Sequences of the First WHO Repository of Platelet Transfusion-Relevant Bacterial Reference Strains

To develop novel techniques for improving blood safety, dedicated bacterial strains, which are able to persist and to proliferate in blood platelet concentrates, are needed. Here, we present draft genome sequences of the four bacterial strains approved for the first WHO repository of platelet transf...
