Sequencing the whole genome of a <i>Brucella abortus</i> using nanopore technology

We report the whole-genome sequence of the <i>B. abortus</i> strain "Y11_MNG" isolated from Mongolia. The MinION platform was used for sequencing and draft assembly composed of six contigs with a length of 3,274,836 bp. Assembly completeness was 93.5%, with 116 of 124 single-copy genes present.
