Klebsiella pasteurii is a Gram-negative, non-motile rod of the family Enterobacteriaceae, recently delineated as a novel species within the Klebsiella oxytoca species complex. It has been recovered from both clinical and environmental sources and is frequently misidentified as K. oxytoca by routine phenotypic methods. Genomic analyses place K. pasteurii as a distinct clade, and certain strains harbour genes encoding cytotoxin production and antimicrobial resistance.
For detailed methods on how these thresholds were calculated, please see Methods. The suggested thresholds are in the table below. These thresholds are based on 18 genomes from RefSeq and 0 genomes from other sources.
These tables provide a summary of the distribution of each metric, including SDeviation, Mean, Median, and Percentiles.

This plot shows the relationship between the number of coding sequences (CDS) and genome size. It helps to visualize how genome size correlates with the number of genes. This should be linear – as genome size increases, the number of coding sequences should also increase. Any secondary trend lines or non-linear behaviour indicates bona fide separate populations within the retained genomes or some remaining contaminant.
Histogram comparing SRA to RefSeq; each bar shows genome density across value ranges to highlight shifts, peaks, or outliers.
QQ (quantile-quantile) plot comparing SRA and RefSeq. Points along the diagonal follow the expected distribution; deviations indicate skew, outliers, or other systematic differences.
