Genome sequences of Vibrio cholerae strains isolated in the DRC between 2009 and 2012.

Vibrio cholerae has caused seven cholera pandemics in the past two centuries. The seventh and ongoing pandemic has been particularly severe on the African continent. Here, we report long read-based genome sequences of six V. cholerae strains isolated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo between 2009 and 2012.
