Complete Genome Sequence of АМК-16, Isolated from a Small Ruminant in the Middle Volga Region, Russia

Abstract

We report the complete genome sequence of the АМК-16, recovered from the aborted caprine fetus during a case of chlamydia infection. This 1,152,497-bp genome with 7,552-bp cryptic plasmid provides novel insights into the genetic diversity of chlamydia agent strains particularly those causing the infection in small ruminants.
