Abstract

We report the complete genome sequence of a penicillin-resistant Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. funduliforme isolate, AJ79, from a tonsillitis patient. The AJ79 genome consists of a chromosome (2,440,359 bp) and plasmid (9,887 bp), providing insights into the genetic basis of penicillin resistance in F. necrophorum and its implications for treating tonsillitis.
