Abstract

We report here the completed closed genome sequences of strains representing 36 serotypes of Salmonella These genome sequences will provide useful references for understanding the genetic variation between serotypes, particularly as references for mapping of raw reads or to create assemblies of higher quality, as well as to aid in studies of comparative genomics of Salmonella.
