Whole genome sequencing of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium isolated from a Pine Siskin (Spinus pinus)
A sample from the cloaca of a Pine siskin (Spinus pinus) was swabbed on the surface of a Salmonella-Shigella Agar plate. A single black colony (putative Salmonella spp.) was selected and grown in LB broth. DNA was isolated using the Promega Wizard Genomic DNA Purification kit according to the manufacturer's protocol for Gram-negative bacteria. DNA was sent to SeqCenter for library preparation and whole genome sequencing.
