Draft genome sequencing of a multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhimurium strain isolated from chicken in Bangladesh

Herein this study, we sequenced the genome of a multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain MBR-MFRK-23 isolated from the liver tissue of a diseased layer chicken. The 4,964,854-bp draft genome comprises 50 contigs with 50.5× coverage and 52.1% GC content and is typed as S. enterica sequence type 19.
