Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Rissen is an emerging and important Salmonella serovar prevalent in live animals and foods from retail markets worldwide. Here, we describe the whole-genome sequence of Salmonella enterica Serovar Rissen Sequence Type 8877 isolated from a cracked table egg in Sudan. The whole-genome sequencing was obtained using Illumina Miseq platform. The quality of the sequenced read, the De novo assembly, and the sequencing typing was conducted by JEKESA pipeline (https://github.com/stanikae/jekesa). The assembled genome was also uploaded to the Center for Genomic Epidemiology web server to determine acquired antibiotic resistance genes, predict the serovar, and the antigenic profile. The genome of Salmonella enterica serovar Rissen 1-M1 was found to harbor 4,689 protein-coding genes, 96 RNA genes, and 115 pseudogenes, as predicted by NCBI Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline. This whole genome shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under accession JAPSFB000000000.
