Genome Sequence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis Strain KM01, Isolated from the Abscess of a Goat in Kunming, China.

ABSTRACT

Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) is an acute, pyogenic, and contagious disease of goat that imposes considerable economic losses for farmers, and it is caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis Herein, we introduce the genome sequencing of C. pseudotuberculosis strain KM01, isolated from an abscess of a Saanen goat from Kunming, China. The genome contains 2,198 genes, the total length of the genes was 2,337,666 bp, and the GC content was 52.18%. The number of tandem repeat sequences was 44, the total length of the tandem repeat sequences was 1,970 bp (0.0772% of the genome), the number of minisatellite DNAs was 36, and there were 48 tRNAs and 12 rRNAs.
