Draft Genome Sequence of a Pathogenic O86:H25 Sequence Type 57 Escherichia coli Strain Isolated from Poultry and Carrying 12 Acquired Antibiotic Resistance Genes.

Escherichia coli is a commensal bacterium that is frequently associated with multidrug-resistant zoonotic and foodborne infections. Here, we report the 5.6-Mbp draft genome sequence of an E. coli recovered from poultry, which encodes multiple acquired antibiotic resistance determinants, virulence factors, pathogenicity determinants, and mobile genetic elements.
