Mycoplasma bovis is a major bacterial pathogen that causes respiratory diseases in cattle and bison. We report here the complete genome sequences of four Mycoplasma bovis strains isolated in three Canadian provinces. These genome sequences could provide important information on virulence factors and targets for new vaccines against M. bovis .
