# Complete circular assembly of Histophilus somni PDS1537697-81-1 genome and phenotypic characterization of its antibiotic susceptibility

## TL;DR

This paper reports the full genome assembly and antibiotic susceptibility testing of a Histophilus somni isolate from a healthy calf.

## Contribution

The study provides a complete circular genome assembly and phenotypic characterization of an H. somni isolate.

## Key findings

- A Histophilus somni isolate was obtained from a healthy calf.
- The isolate's genome was fully sequenced and assembled in a circular form.
- Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed on the isolate.

## Abstract

A Histophilus somni isolate from a clinically healthy,
fall-placed calf was obtained upon arrival to a commercial feedlot.
Fall-placed calves are commonly viewed to be at high risk for the
development of bovine respiratory disease. The isolate was phenotyped for
antimicrobial susceptibility and sequenced to obtain a complete, circular,
genome assembly.
