Fully Closed Genome Sequences of Five Type Strains of the Genus <i>Cronobacter</i> and One <i>Cronobacter sakazakii</i> Strain

Abstract

Cronobacteris associated with infant infections and the consumption of reconstituted infant formula. Here we sequenced and closed six genomes ofC. condimenti(T),C. muytjensii(T),C. universalis(T),C. malonaticus(T),C. dublinensis(T), andC. sakazakiithat can be used as reference genomes in single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis for source tracking investigations.
