Popis: Clostridium botulinum group III is the anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria producing the deadly neurotoxin responsible for animal botulism. Here, we used long-read sequencing to produce four complete genomes from Clostridium botulinum group III neurotoxin types C, D, C/D, and D/C. The protocol to obtain high-molecular-weight DNA from C. botulinum group III is described.
