Authors: Eby, Joshua C and Turner, Lauren and Nguyen, Bryan and Kang, June and Neville, Carly and Temple, Louise

The number of cases of pertussis has increased in the United States despite vaccination. We present the genome of an isolate of Bordetella pertussis from a vaccinated patient from Virginia. The genome was sequenced by long-read methodology and compared to that of a clinical isolate used for laboratory studies, D420. Copyright © 2016 Eby et al.
