title: Complete Genome Sequence of an Escherichia coli O157:H7 Strain Isolated from a Super-Shedder Steer.
abstract: We report here the complete genome sequence ofEscherichia coliO157:H7 strain JEONG-1266 isolated from a super- shedder steer in northwest Florida. Cattle are considered a primary reservoir ofE. coliO157:H7, and those cattle that excrete this pathogen in their feces at levels ≥10(4) CFU/g are known as super-shedders.
