Identification and Phylogenetic Analysis of Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium Strain Isolated from Cow

Mycobacterium avium subsp. (MAA) is the main tuberculosis pathogen of poultry and wild birds. MAA can also infect mammals such as pigs, cattle, horses pose a threat to people with low immunity. Here, we describe first identification strain HJW isolated from cow in Jilin Province, China. The isolate was completely sequenced phylogenetic analysis its relationship members complex (MAC) performed. results revealed that type based on insertion sequence amplification whole genome sequencing. size 4,961,843 bp GC content 69.28%. genetically most closely related DSM 44156. This study suggests may an infection risk cattle provides data support for phylogeny avium.
