Draft Genome Sequences of Antibiotic-Resistant Escherichia coli Isolates from U.S. Wastewater Treatment Plants.


ABSTRACT: The spread of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms is a major public health concern. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of three Escherichia coli isolates from primary effluent collected from geographically dispersed U.S. wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Genomic analysis confirms the presence of genes encoding resistance to a broad spectrum of antibiotics.
