Abstract excerpt
Clostridium chauvoei is a spore-forming bacterium responsible for black quarter (BQ) in cattle, a disease leading to high mortality. Despite its economic significance in India, genomic characterization of C. chauvoei strains from the country remains scarce. This study reports the genome of a C. chauvoei strain, 23CCJK, associated with a black quarter outbreak in Leh, India. The genome, approximately 2.7 Mb,...
