Whole-genome sequences of Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni isolates from rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) with and without intestinal disease.

Abstract

Campylobacter jejuni or Campylobacter coli infection can lead to post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome in humans and may produce a similar syndrome in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). We report the complete genomes of 8 C. jejuni isolates and 103 C. coli isolates obtained from rhesus macaques with and without intestinal disease.
