# Draft genomes of fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica strains isolated from Cambodian poultry marketplaces

## TL;DR

This paper presents draft genomes of six fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella strains from Cambodian poultry, highlighting the presence of the qnrS resistance gene.

## Contribution

The study provides high-quality draft genomes of fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella strains from Cambodia, including the identification of the qnrS gene in multiple provinces.

## Key findings

- Six Salmonella strains from Cambodian poultry were sequenced, including Corvallis-, Monschaui-, and Kentucky-serovars.
- The qnrS gene, associated with fluoroquinolone resistance, was detected in three strains from different Cambodian provinces.
- The genomes serve as references for understanding antibiotic resistance genotypes in Salmonella.

## Abstract

High-quality draft genomes of six Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica strains from Cambodian poultry marketplaces were sequenced. The strains were identified as Corvallis-, Monschaui-, and Kentucky-serovars. The fluoroquinolone resistance gene, qnrS, was found in three strains in different Cambodian provinces. These genomes serve as references for antibiotic resistance genotypes.
