Draft Genome Sequence of the Fish Pathogen Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii Strain JCM15466, a Species Closely Related to M. marinum.

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii is a slowly growing photochromogenic mycobacterium and fish pathogen isolated from wild marine fishes. M. pseudoshottsii closely resembles M. marinum, which is a human and animal pathogen. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of M. pseudoshottsii strain JCM15466, originally isolated from striped bass, Morone saxatilis.
