In this study,two strains of Clostridium perfringens type A,named ZWCP209 and ZWCP210,were isolated from the tissues and organs of sudden death Hainan cattle.Genome as-sembly results showed that the genome size was between 3.4-3.5 Mb,and the number of tRNA and CDS was stable.Multilocus sequence analysis(MLST)showed that the sequenced strains be-longed to the same new ST type.The genomes of 27 bovine C.perfringens strains were ob-tained from the NCBI database and analyzed by bioinformatics together with sequenced isolates:A total of 13 resistance genes were detected,among which the tetracycline resistance genes tetA(P)and tetB(P)had the highest carrying rate(79.4%).It is noteworthy that the two Hainan cattle isolates in this study carried more than 7 resistance genes,including optrA,which is resist-ant to oxazolidinone for non-veterinary use.Pan-genome analysis showed that the genomes of these strains contained a total of 7 345 genes,and the number of core genes accounted for 22.94%.In the phylogenetic analysis of the core genome and plc gene,the two Hainan cattle i-solates were in the same branch and had the same virulence factors,with high homology.This study is the first complete genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of C.perfringens iso-lated from cattle in Hainan Province in China,which has a reference value for the prevention and treatment of C.perfringens disease in cattle and the study of genome.
