Genome Sequences of Four Staphylococcus aureus Strains Isolated from Bovine Mastitis

Genome Announc. 2015 Apr 23;3(2):e00334-15. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00334-15.

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative agent of mastitis in dairy cows. The pathogenicity of S. aureus may vary; it is able to cause severe clinical mastitis, but most often it is associated with chronic subclinical mastitis. Here, we present the genome assemblies of four S. aureus strains from bovine mastitis.
