Abstract

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) bacteria continue to impact the food industry. Environmental sampling of potential sources of contamination is important to aid epidemiologic efforts in tracking foodborne illnesses throughout the United States. Here, the draft genome sequences of 110 STEC isolates from bovine manure collected in Florida and Texas are reported.
