Abstract

Here, we report the genomes of two Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Montevideo strains (CFSAN005645 and FCC0123) and two Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Senftenberg strains (FSW0104 and CFSAN087304) isolated from pistachios. The genomes were closed using a hybrid assembly method using short- and long-read sequencing technology.
