Comparative genome analysis of strains of porcine origin.

causes acute/chronic pasteurellosis in porcine, resulting in considerable economic losses globally. The draft genomes of two Indian strains NIVEDIPm17 (serogroup D) and NIVEDIPm36 (serogroup A) were sequenced. A total of 2182-2284 coding sequences (CDSs) were predicted along with 5-6 rRNA and 45-46 tRNA genes in the genomes. Multilocus sequence analysis and LPS genotyping showed the presence of ST50: genotype 07 and ST74: genotype 06 in NIVEDIPm17 and NIVEDIPm36, respectively. Pangenome analysis of 61 strains showed the presence of 1653 core genes, 167 soft core genes, 750 shell genes, and 1820 cloud genes. Analysis of virulence-associated genes in 61 genomes indicated the presence of , and in all strains. The 61 genomes contained genes encoding tetracycline (54%), streptomycin (48%), sulphonamide (28%), tigecycline (25%), chloramphenicol (21%), amikacin (7%), cephalosporin (5%), and trimethoprim (5%) resistance. Multilocus sequence type revealed that ST50 was the most common (34%), followed by ST74 (26%), ST13 (24%), ST287 (5%), ST09 (5%), ST122 (3%), and ST07 (2%). Single-nucleotide polymorphism and core genome-based phylogenetic analysis clustered the strains into three major clusters. In conclusion, we described the various virulence factors, mobile genetic elements, and antimicrobial resistance genes in the pangenome of of porcine origin, besides the rare presence of LPS genotype 7 in serogroup D.
