Pathogenic Leptospira species represent a major concern for livestock but also for human health, as they cause zoonotic infections. Forty strains representing L. interrogans, L. borgpetersenii, and L. noguchii were isolated from naturally infected cattle in Uruguay. Here, we report the whole-genome sequences for these strains. © 2019 Nieves et al. aLEPTOSPIRA aLEPTOSPIROSIS aANIMAL EXPERIMENT1 aFERRÉS, I.1 aDÍAZ-VIRAQUÉ, F.1 aBUSCHIAZZO, A.1 aZARANTONELLI, L.1 aIRAOLA, G. tMicrobiology Resource Announcements, 21 November 2019, Volume 8, Issue 47, Article number e00893-19.
