Whole-genome sequence of Leptospira interrogans Serovar Hardjo subtype Hardjoprajitno strain norma, isolated from cattle in a leptospirosis outbreak in Brazil

Abstract

Leptospirosis is caused by pathogenic bacteria of the genus Leptospira spp. This neglected re-emergent disease has global distribution and relevance in veterinary production. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence and annotation of Leptospira interrogans serovar Hardjo subtype Hardjoprajitno strain Norma, isolated from cattle in a livestock leptospirosis outbreak in Brazil.
