Complete Genome Sequence of an Ehrlichia minasensis Strain Isolated from Cattle

Abstract

Ehrlichia minasensis is a tick-borne pathogen affecting cattle, cervids, and dogs, and it is closely related to the monocytotropic pathogen Ehrlichia canis . Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of Ehrlichia minasensis strain Cuiabá, isolated from a naturally infected calf from Santo Antônio do Leverger, Mato Grosso, Brazil.
