Abstract
We announce the draft genome sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Manhattan strain 111113, isolated from a patient during an outbreak in northern Italy. The genome, which was obtained with Illumina MiSeq technology, is composed of 21 contigs for a total of 4,684,342 bp, with a G+C content of 52.17%.
Highlights
We announce the draft genome sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Manhattan strain 111113, isolated from a patient during an outbreak in northern Italy
Manhattan have been reported [2,3,4] worldwide, all caused by contaminated pork-meat products
Standard and molecular epidemiology investigations revealed the same pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) profile for all outbreak-related isolates, all of which were caused by the consumption of pork-meat sausages from a single producer
Summary
We announce the draft genome sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Manhattan strain 111113, isolated from a patient during an outbreak in northern Italy. Enterica serovar Manhattan is a rare serotype belonging to serogroup C. A handful of human outbreaks of S. Manhattan have been reported [2,3,4] worldwide, all caused by contaminated pork-meat products.
