(2024). Draft genome sequences of Escherichia spp. isolates from New Zealand environmental sources.. Microbiol Resour Announc. 13. 3. (pp. e0100723-).2576-098Xhttps://mro.massey.ac.nz/handle/10179/70238Escherichia coli is often used as a fecal indicator bacterium for water quality monitoring. We report the draft genome sequences of 500 Escherichia isolates including newly described Escherichia species, namely Escherichia marmotae, Escherichia ruysiae, and Escherichia whittamii, obtained from diverse environmental sources to assist with improved public health risk assessments.(c) 2024 The Author/sCC BY 4.0https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Escherichia marmotaeEscherichia ruysiaeEscherichia spp.Escherichia whittamiiwater qualityJournal article10.1128/mra.01007-232576-098Xjournal-articlee0100723-https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/38376223e0100723
