Sumario:The genome of a Weissella confusa strain isolated from a foal with sepsis is reported. Weissella confusa inhabits feces and causes disease in immunocompromised humans and animals. It is important for veterinarians to be aware of the pathogenic ability of these bacteria due to the unknown potential for zoonotic transmission.
