Isolation of Helicobacter cinaedi from a positive blood culture requires prolonged and stringent subculture conditions. Direct whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a positive blood culture may provide timely treatment-associated genetic information.

Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 16 nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica isolates obtained from locally produced meats in Tamale, Ghana, which are commonly consumed by most natives as an important protein source. The draft genomes will help provide a molecular snapshot of Salmonella enterica isolates found in these retail meats in Tamale.

A fast-growing Mycobacterium species was cultured from draining, purulent lesions on the caudal abdomen of a 12-year-old male domestic long-haired cat. Whole-genome sequencing identified the organism as Mycobacterium porcinum.

Pseudoalteromonas tetraodonis strain kknpp56 is an exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing marine bacterium that forms potent biofilm. To determine the biosynthesis pathways involved in the EPS production of this bacterium, whole-genome sequencing was performed. The complete genome comes from one chromosome containing 3.72 Mbp of DNA with a G+C content of 41%.

An IMP-4-producingAcinetobacterpittiistrain coproducing oxacillinases was isolated from a leg wound of a 67-year-old female patient. Identification to the species level byrpoBandgyrBsequencing and multiplex-PCR-based analysis revealed that the isolate wasA. pittii. Whole-genome sequencing of thisA. pittiiisolate determined the presence ofblaOXA-96,blaCARB-2, and a novelblaOXA-421gene. The position of this novelblaOXA-421gene was similar to that ofblaOXA-51inA. baumannii, downstream of the phosphinothricinN-acetyltransferase gene and upstream offxsAin the chromosome. ThisA. pittiiisolate was found to belong to sequence type 119 (ST119). Here, we report the first isolation of IMP-4-producingA. pittiiST119 with a novelblaOXA-421gene from a patient in Australia and characterize its draft genome.

ABSTRACT This is the draft genome of an Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae strain isolated from the blood of a canine. Initial 16S ribosomal DNA amplification identified the isolate as belonging to the Erysipelothrix genus but could not elucidate the species due to previous misidentification of E. rhusiopathiae and E. tonsillarum. The species identification was confirmed by whole-genome sequencing.

ABSTRACT We report here the draft genome sequences of 10 Yersinia pseudotuberculosis isolates recovered from tonsils of wild boars hunted between 2015 and 2016 in Germany. Whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatic analyses were performed to assess the diversity of Y. pseudotuberculosis , which may result in human infections caused by the consumption of game meat.

This report describes the draft genome sequence of Weissella viridescens UCO-SMC3, isolated from Helix aspersa Müller slime. The reads were generated by a whole-genome sequencing (WGS) strategy on an Illumina MiSeq sequencer and were assembled into contigs with a total estimated size of 1,612,814 bp.

Campylobacter spp. are commensal organisms in avian species and are one of the leading causes of bacterial foodborne human diarrheal disease worldwide. We report the draft genome sequences of Campylobacter volucris, C. lari, and C. jejuni strains isolated from California gull (Larus californicus) excreta collected from a California beach.

ABSTRACT We describe here the draft genome sequence of AY1MRC, a Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain belonging to lineage 1 (Indo-Oceanic) and the East African Indian spoligotype, isolated from a patient with tuberculosis in Jazan, Saudi Arabia.
