Brucella melitensis strain:Al Qadisiyah Genome sequencing
Bacteria isolated from Fetal abomasal contents (Host: sheep) in Al-Qadisiyah province, Iraq.This marks the first instance of WGS being applied to B. melitensis in Iraq, representing a crucial step for future research and the implementation of control programs. Furthermore, it allows for the monitoring of developments in virulence, antimicrobial resistance, and potentially host range tropism
