Abstract

Migratory birds are potential vehicles of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Here, we isolated the multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas fluorescens strain BWKM6 from the feces of Mareca penelope The strain's draft genome sequence indicates that it harbors a metallo-beta-lactamase, a class C beta-lactamase, and several multidrug efflux pumps.
