Abstract

The genome sequences of four antibiotic-resistant Salmonella strains isolated from red meat animals in Australia are presented. Multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg 329 and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium 2470 harbored an IncHI2 plasmid similar to the multidrug-resistant S. Heidelberg strain N13-01290 plasmid pN13-01290_23 previously isolated in Canada.
