Résumé
The aim of this study was to describe the genome sequences of 38 antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from veal calves. The isolates were recovered in 2015 from nine veal farms in the eastern USA and were screened for antibiotic susceptibility using an automated microdilution procedure. The draft genomes were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 platform and were assembled using SPAdes. In total, 294 resistance genes, categorised into 42 unique genes, conferring resistance to seven different antibiotic classes were detected. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes (bla The results of this study indicate a high level of diversity among multidrug-resistant E. coli isolates from veal operations. The identification of multiple isolates encoding resistance to β-lactams, macrolides and fluoroquinolones as well as virulence factors responsible for human infections warrants more study on the ecology of antibiotic resistance in veal operations.
