title: Draft Genome Sequence of Five Shiga Toxin-ProducingEscherichia coliStrains Isolated from Wild Deer in Japan.
abstract: Shiga toxin-producingEscherichia coli(STEC) is one of the major foodborne pathogens. Having observed the wide distribution of this pathogen in wild deer, we report here the draft genome sequence of five STEC strains isolated from wild deer (Cervus nippon yesoensis) in Hokkaido, Japan.
