| Sumario: | Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is one of the most important agents causing non-tuberculosis mycobacterial infection in humans and pigs. There have been advances in genome analysis of MAH from human isolates, but studies of isolates from pigs are limited despite its potential source of infection to human. Here, we obtained 30 draft genome sequences of MAH from pigs reared in Japan. The 30 draft genomes were 4,848,678–5,620,788 bp in length, comprising 4652–5388 coding genes and 46–75 (median: 47) tRNAs. All isolates had restriction modification-associated genes and 185–222 predicted virulence genes. Two isolates had tRNA arrays and one isolate had a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) region. Our results will be useful for evaluation of the ecology of MAH by providing a foundation for genome-based epidemiological studies.
