Draft Genome Sequence of a Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli Sequence Type 1193 Pandemic Clone Isolated from Wastewater in Austria

Abstract

Extraintestinal Escherichia coli sequence type 1193 (ST1193) is an important source of fluoroquinolone resistance, which has emerged in recent years. We report the first draft genome sequence and annotation of a multidrug-resistant E. coli ST1193 strain obtained from a wastewater treatment plant in Austria.
