Whole-Genome Sequences of Vibrio Species from Warm-Water Shrimps Imported into Canada: Detection of Genetic Elements Associated with Antimicrobial Resistance and Potential Mobilizing Capacities

We present draft genome sequences of species (Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio cholerae, and two Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains) that were isolated from warm-water shrimps imported into Canada. All four isolates harbor genetic elements associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR), including mobile ge...

Description
Summary:We present draft genome sequences of species (Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio cholerae, and two Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains) that were isolated from warm-water shrimps imported into Canada. All four isolates harbor genetic elements associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR), including mobile genetic elements that can promote horizontal transfer of AMR genes.
