Abstract

Serratia rubidaea has emerged in recent years as an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of an isolate derived from an industrial meat food product purchased in a large-scale retail store that revealed fluoroquinolone, β-lactam, and aminoglycoside resistance genes and two different host-unspecific prophages.
