Draft Genome Sequences of Six Novel Bacterial Isolates from Chicken Ceca

Genome Announc. 2016 May 26;4(3):e00448-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00448-16.

Abstract

The chicken is the most common domesticated animal and the most abundant bird in the world. However, the chicken gut is home to many previously uncharacterized bacterial taxa. Here, we report draft genome sequences from six bacterial isolates from chicken ceca, all of which fall outside any named species.
