Closed Genome Sequences and Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Eight Wild Bird Salmonella Isolates Obtained with MinION and Illumina MiSeq Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Complete genome sequences of eight isolates of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica from Canadian wild birds were determined by MinION and Illumina MiSeq sequencing. Assembled chromosomes had an average size of 4,833,662 bp. Salmonella enterica serovar Worthington obtained from partridge and quail carried 267-kb plasmids, which contained multiple antimicrobial resistance genes.
