Abstract

ABSTRACTMycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii is a rapidly growing mycobacterial organism for which the taxonomy is unclear. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of a Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii type strain. This sequence will provide essential information for future taxonomic and comparative genome studies of these mycobacteria.

Highlights

  • Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii is a rapidly growing mycobacterial organism for which the taxonomy is unclear

  • We identified a 97.1-kb prophage that was longer than that seen in a previous study (63 kb) [21]

  • The chromosome sequence was deposited in DDBJ/ENA/ GenBank under accession no
