Complete genome sequences of <i>Campylobacter hepaticus</i> strains USA1 and USA5 isolated from a commercial layer flock in the United States
Abstract
<i>Campylobacter hepaticus</i> is known to cause spotty liver disease (SLD) in layer chickens around peak production. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of two <i>C. hepaticus</i> strains, USA1 and USA5, from the United States. The genomes comprise chromosomes of 1,508,744 and 1,531,174 bp, respectively, with a G + C content of 28%.
