Genome sequence of <i>Trueperella pyogenes</i> isolates from liver abscesses in feedlot cattle
High-grain diets promote polymicrobial liver infections in cattle, commonly involving the bacterium <i>Trueperella pyogenes</i>. We have isolated <i>T. pyogenes</i> from the purulent material of abscesses and sequenced their genomes. These data enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying liver abscess development in cattle.
