Draft Genome Sequence of Leptospira yasudae Strain BJ3, Isolated from the Soil of an Ex Situ Wild Animal Conservation Area

Abstract

Previously, a novel Leptospira strain (BJ3) was isolated from the soil of an ex situ wild animal conservation area in Perak, Malaysia. Molecular identification via whole-genome sequencing confirmed that the strain was Leptospira yasudae . Here, we report the draft genome sequence of L. yasudae strain BJ3.
