Complete genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis strain P8-1 isolated from wild Magellanic penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) feces on the south coast of Brazil

Abstract

Enterococcus faecalis strains have a ubiquitous nature that allows them to survive in different niches. Studies involving enterococci isolated from marine animals are scarce. Therefore, in this study, we report the complete genome sequence of E. faecalis strain P8-1 isolated from feces of a Magellanic penguin on the south coast of Brazil.
