Genomic analysis reveals antibiotic resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii from animal feces, indicating environmental health risks.
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic human pathogen that primarily affects individuals with compromised immune systems. Here, we report the draft genomes of six A. baumannii strains isolated from animal fecal sources and mixed-use but primarily agricultural surface waters. These genomes contain a diverse array of antibiotic resistance and virulence-associated genes.
