Whole-genome sequencing of three ciprofloxacin-resistant <i>Salmonella</i> Reading (ST93) strains, an emerging <i>Salmonella</i> serovar in the poultry sector of Pakistan
In this study, we performed whole-genome sequencing of three ciprofloxacin-resistant <i>Salmonella</i> Reading strains isolated from poultry meat. Genomes of <i>S</i>. Reading strains contained an average of 4.81 Mbp size with 52.1% GC. The isolates exhibited <i>bla<sub>OXA-10</sub></i>, <i>aac</i> [<i>6'</i>]<i>-Iaa</i>, <i>aadA1</i>, <i>cmlA1</i>, <i>qnrS1</i>, and <i>tetA</i> resistance genes and <i>IncX1</i> and <i>IncX2</i> plasmids.
