Abstract

Carbapenems are an important class of β-lactams and one of the last options for treating severe human infections. We present here the complete genome sequence of avian native carbapenemase-producing Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Corvallis strain 12-01738, harboring a bla_NDM-1-carrying IncA/C₂ plasmid, isolated in 2012 from a wild bird (Milvus migrans) in Germany.
