Complete Genome Sequences of Two Strains of Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica bv. japonica.

ABSTRACT: Francisella tularensis, a highly infectious bacterium, is the etiological agent of the zoonotic disease tularemia. It is widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, including Japan. Here, we have determined the complete genome sequences of two strains of F. tularensis subsp. holarctica bv. japonica isolated from hares in 2008 and 2009.
