Abstract

We report the whole-genome sequence of Staphylococcus aureus strain 
MD04, isolated from the foot ulcer of a diabetic patient in rural southwestern Uganda. 
The assembled genome is 2,789,538 base pairs in length, with a GC content of 32.5%. 
Genome completeness is 98%, with a 2.48% contamination.
