Complete genome sequence of Brucella abortus A13334, a new strain isolated from the fetal gastric fluid of dairy cattle

J Bacteriol. 2012 Oct;194(19):5444. doi: 10.1128/JB.01124-12.

Abstract

Brucella abortus is a major pathogen that infects livestock and humans. A new strain of B. abortus (A13334) was isolated from the fetal gastric fluid of a dairy cow, with the aim of using it to compare genetic properties, analyze virulence factor, and survey the epidemiological relationship to other Brucella species. Here, we report the complete and annotated genome sequence of B. abortus A13334.
