Abstract
Abstract Background Candidatus Ornithobacterium hominis (O. hominis), which was identified in nasopharyngeal swabs from Egypt, has been associated with respiratory disorders in humans. O. hominis, a recently identified member of the Flavobacteriaceae family, belongs to the largest family within the Bacteroidetes phylum. This family includes hundreds of species and 90 genera, including major human pathogens such as Capnocytophaga canimorsus and Elizabethkingia meni

Draft Genome Sequence of Novel Candidatus Ornithobacterium hominis Carrying Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Egypt

Abstract
Abstract Background Candidatus Ornithobacterium hominis (O. hominis), which was found in Egyptian nasopharyngeal swabs but remains unidentified, has been associated with respiratory disorders in humans. Herein, we presented two draft genome assemblies of O. hominis that were extracted from metagenomic data using the Illumina sequencing method. The primary goal of this study was to present the first O. hominis genome sequence from Egyptian populations. Results The genome size was estima
