Abstract

We describe the draft genome sequence of the clinical Vibrio vulnificus strain 03_7315, isolated in 2016 from the blood of a diabetic patient who died of septicemia after ingestion of seafood. The draft genome, with 4,755,588 bp covering two chromosomes, presented 4,434 genes, 4,213 coding sequences, and 117 pseudogenes.
