Draft genome sequence reveals virulence factors in Brucella canis, indicating public health risks.
Brucella canis is a zoonotic Gram-negative coccobacillus of significant public health concern. This bacterium harbors multiple virulence factors that facilitate infection. We report the draft genome sequence of a B. canis strain isolated from an infected dog in Mexico and provide an annotation of genes associated with its virulence factors.
