Complete Genome Sequences of Seven Avibacterium paragallinarum Isolates from Poultry Farms in Pennsylvania, USA

Abstract

Avibacterium paragallinarum , the causative agent of infectious coryza, causes significant economic losses to the poultry industry due to increased culling rates in growing chickens and decreased egg production in layers. We present the complete genome sequences of seven strains of Avibacterium paragallinarum isolated from poultry farms in Pennsylvania during 2019.
