Draft genome sequences of three Escherichia coli strains investigated for the effects of lysogeny on niche diversification

Abstract

During the course of investigating the effects of lysogeny on niche diversification of Escherichia coli, we used the temperate phages induced from one E. coli strain to infect another and created an isogenic lysogen of the latter. The draft genome sequences of the three E. coli strains are reported herein.
