Abstract

Nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) is one of the main causes of foodborne disease worldwide. In this report, we announce the first whole-genome sequencing of six strains of Salmonella enterica isolated from imported meat in Algeria. The genome sizes ranged from 4,601,209 to 4,958,962 bp. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes, plasmids, and virulence factors were detected.
