Genome sequences of undescribed Mycobacterium species isolated from northern snakeheads (Channa argus) inhabiting the Potomac River catchment
We present genomes of two previously undescribed Mycobacterium species, strains 213A and 216A, isolated from invasive Northern snakehead in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Average nucleotide identity below 91% and digital DNA–DNA hybridization under 70% indicate they represent distinct, unassigned species from a common host.
