title: Complete genome sequence of Brucella melitensis biovar 3 strain NI, isolated from an aborted bovine fetus.
abstract: From an aborted bovine fetus in China, a bacterial strain named NI was isolated and identified as Brucella melitensis by a PCR assay. Strain NI was further characterized as B. melitensis biovar 3 using biochemical assays. Here we report the complete genome sequence of strain NI.
