Abstract
Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Ureaplasma diversum strain ATCC 49782. This species is of bovine origin, having an association with reproductive disorders in cattle, including placentitis, fetal alveolitis, abortion, and birth of weak calves. It has a small circular chromosome of 975,425 bp.
Highlights
We report the complete genome sequence of Ureaplasma diversum strain ATCC 49782
U. diversum ATCC 49782 was first cultured in 2 ml of Ureaplasma medium (UB) at 37°C, followed by propagation in 3,000 ml of the same broth
The whole genome was sequenced from a paired-end library using Illumina HiSeq 2000 (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA) at the Purdue University Genomics Core Facility
Summary
We report the complete genome sequence of Ureaplasma diversum strain ATCC 49782. Ureaplasma diversum is a bovine-origin ureaplasma isolated in 1969. It was defined as a nonpathogenic species, but it recently has been shown to cause damage in bovine organs and cells [1,2,3,4,5]. It is an important pathogen of the genital tract and may cause low sperm motility, seminal vesiculitis, and epididymitis [1, 6].
