Whole-genome sequences of six Borrelia recurrentis strains obtained via PacBio sequencing

ABSTRACT Provided are whole-genome sequences of six Borrelia recurrentis strains that had been earlier isolated from louse-borne relapsing fever patients. The sequences of each genome presented here included one linear chromosome and 5 linear plasmids, whose average size was 1,284,895 bp with the mean GC content being 27.5%.
