Abstract excerpt
Brucellosis is among the most widespread zoonotic diseases globally, affecting multiple domestic animal species. We report the first isolation of Brucella suis from a vaginal swab collected from an aborted cow in India. The isolate (VS1) was confirmed as B. suis bv. 1 by biochemical assays and species-specific PCR. Whole genome sequencing analysis of the VS1 isolate revealed a 32,81,903 bp genome with a guanosine...
