^aAll sequences are completed and fully assembled, except GCF_000234335, which consists of 282 contigs
^bDate completed refers to genome sequence completion/submission to database; plasmids may have been completed at another time. Total genome size comprises the chromosome and the plasmid sequence. Genome information of strains other than BAA-870 is obtained from the NCBI database
^cTwo separate references, therefore 2 entries
^dR. equi is renamed to R. hoagii
^eBased on BASys annotation
