Abstract

The thermophilic Campylobacter species Campylobacter hepaticus is the causative agent of spotty liver disease (SLD) in chickens. This announcement describes the complete genome sequence of C. hepaticus strain UF2019SK1, isolated from the liver of a commercial layer chicken with SLD in the United States.
