Abstract

The bacterium Vibrio cholerae exhibits two distinct lifestyles, one as an aquatic bacterium and the other as the etiological agent of the pandemic human disease cholera. Here, we report closed genome sequences of two seventh pandemic V. cholerae O1 El Tor strains, A1552 and N16961, and the environmental strain Sa5Y.
