Complete Genome Sequence of Campylobacter armoricus CA639, Which Carries Two Plasmids, Compiled Using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina Sequencing Technologies

Abstract

As determined by a hybrid approach combining Oxford Nanopore MinION and Illumina MiniSeq sequence data, Campylobacter armoricus strain CA639 harbored a circular chromosome of 1,688,169 bp with a G+C content of 28.47% and two plasmids named pCA639-1 and pCA639-2, with lengths of 51,123 and 28,139 bp, and G+C contents of 26.5% and 28.45%, respectively.

Genomic Diversity of Campylobacter lari Group Isolates from Europe and Australia in a One Health Context

“…Lately, the rapid development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies enhanced our ability to sequence the complete genomes of members of the C. lari group and made it possible to better investigate the presence of virulence factor genes (15,18,26,27).…”
