ABSTRACT
Here, we report the draft genome sequences of six
Yersinia pestis subsp.
microtus bv. ulegeica strains isolated from the territory of Mongolia and representing the
0.PE5 phylogroup circulating in populations of voles and picas.
The etiologic agent of plague, Yersinia pestis, includes two subspecies, of which Y. pestis subsp. microtus contains the strains that cause only occasional diseases in humans that are not accompanied by human-to-human transmission. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 19 Y. pestis strains (across 6 biovars of Y. pestis subsp. microtus).
