Most Lyme borreliosis cases in Russia result fromBorrelia garinii NT29 group infection. Borrelias of this group circulate exclusively inIxodes persulcatus ticks, which are seldom found beyond Russia and the far east. Here we report the whole-genome sequence ofBorrelia garinii BgVir isolated from anI. persulcatus female.
