ABSTRACT Potential extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli strains DP254, WH333, WH398, F356, FEX675, and FEX725 were isolated from retail chicken meat products. Here, we report the draft genome sequences for these six E. coli isolates, which are currently being used in food safety research.

ABSTRACT We characterized the genetic environment of mcr-1 in colistin-resistant Escherichia coli strains isolated in Switzerland during 2014 to 2016 from humans (n = 3) and chicken meat (n = 6). Whole-genome and plasmid sequencing identified the mcr-1 gene integrated in IncX4 (of which, one strain carried the mcr-1.2 variant), IncI2, IncHI2, and novel IncK2 plasmids (overall, n = 7), as well as in the bacterial chromosome (n = 2) in single or duplicate copies. Our study supports the easy mobilization of mcr-1 across diverse genetic locations.
