Draft genome sequences of two distinct <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> isolates coinfecting a patient
<i>Clostridioides difficile</i> is a spore-forming anaerobic Gram-positive bacillus. In this study, two distinct strains of <i>C. difficile</i> causing coinfection were isolated from the same fecal sample. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on these two strains to elucidate their genomic characteristics.
