Abstract:
Staphylococcus aureus is frequently associated with bovine mastitis, one of the
most economically important diseases in the dairy industry. The bovine S. aureus strain
RF122 represents a geographically widespread clone that is particularly well adapted to
the bovine host. Previous studies showed that extensive gene decay occurred in the
genome of RF122, revealed by the level of pseudogenes detected during annotations.
