WGS of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli from chicken cecal samples
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was performed on 31 Escherichia coli isolates. Sequencing was conducted by Novogene using the Illumina NovaSeq platform (PE150). Raw reads underwent quality control and were assembled using SPAdes 4.0.1 with the "careful correction" option to minimize mismatches, and k-mer values were automatically determined.
