Abstract

The draft genome sequences of 16 Campylobacter jejuni isolates obtained from wild birds are presented in this study. These genomes provide insights into the genetic features of C. jejuni isolates from wild birds, which are considered common hosts of this microorganism but have scarcely been investigated to date.

Highlights

  • The draft genome sequences of 16 Campylobacter jejuni isolates obtained from wild birds are presented in this study

  • ResFinder 3.1 was used to identify resistance genes [15], and PlasmidFinder 2.0 was used to search for plasmids [16]

  • multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis assigned isolates to three novel sequence types (STs) and 12 STs previously identified in C. jejuni from humans, animals, and the environment

Summary

Introduction

The draft genome sequences of 16 Campylobacter jejuni isolates obtained from wild birds are presented in this study. The QUAST software [11] was used to evaluate genome assembly quality. The genomes were analyzed using MLST 2.0 to identify multilocus sequence typing (MLST) profiles [14].
