High-Quality Draft Genome Sequences of Rare Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Isolated from Surfaces of a Hospital.

ABSTRACT: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), some of which had multidrug-resistant profiles, were isolated from a tertiary care hospital setting. Although most NTM are nonpathogenic, contamination of hospital surfaces by these opportunistic pathogens poses a health risk to vulnerable inpatients. These high-quality NTM draft genomes are fundamental for future genetic and epidemiological studies.
