Complete Genome Sequences of Mycobacterium kansasii Strains Isolated from Rhesus Macaques

Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT Mycobacterium kansasii is a nontuberculous mycobacterium. It causes opportunistic infections with pulmonary and extrapulmonary manifestations. We report here the complete genome sequences of two M. kansasii strains isolated from rhesus macaques. We performed genome comparisons with human and environmental isolates of M. kansasii to assess the genomic diversity of this species.
