Abstract

ABSTRACT We report a near-complete genome sequence of Mycoplasma meleagridis isolated from a turkey in New Zealand. Using long-read sequencing approaches, a single circular scaffold was assembled, and then annotated. The genome reported here is the first genetic characterization of M. meleagridis in New Zealand.
