Abstract

ABSTRACTMycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis is the etiological agent of Johne’s disease in ruminants. Here, we report the annotated draft genome sequences of 142 M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis strains that were isolated from dairy cattle in France between 2014 and 2018. The genomes of these strains were sequenced using Illumina technology.

Highlights

  • Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis is an economically significant veterinary pathogen in cattle, sheep, and goat populations [1]

  • The 142 M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis strains were isolated from fecal samples collected as part of a longitudinal study of naturally infected cattle [3]

  • The M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis isolates were propagated on slopes of Middlebrook 7H11 agar, 0.5% glycerol, 10% Middlebrook oleic acid-albumin-dextrose-catalase (OADC) enrichment medium (Becton, Dickinson, Oxford, Oxfordshire, UK), and 2 mg/ml of mycobactin J (IdVet, France) at 37°C
