Abstract

The genus Yersinia includes three human pathogens, of which Yersinia pestis is responsible for > 2,000 illnesses each year. To aid in the development of detection assays and aid further phylogenetic elucidation, we sequenced and assembled the complete genomes of 32 strains (across 9 Yersinia species).
