Whole-Genome Sequence of Rickettsia parkeri Strain Atlantic Rainforest, Isolated from a Colombian Tick

Abstract

Rickettsia parkeri is classified as a member of the alphaproteobacterial microorganisms, genus Rickettsia . Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Rickettsia parkeri strain Atlantic Rainforest, which was isolated from an Amblyomma ovale tick collected in the municipality of Necoclí, Colombia.
