Draft genome sequences of clinical mastitis-associated Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium carrying multiple antimicrobial resistance genes isolated from dairy cows

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The emergence of antimicrobial-resistant and mastitis-associated Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium is of great concern due to the huge economic losses associated with enterococcal infections. Here we report the draft genome sequences of E. faecalis and E. faecium strains that were isolated from raw milk samples obtained from mastitis-infected cows in Bangladesh. METHODS: The two strains...
