Abstract

Here, we provide the genome sequence of a Leclercia adecarboxylata isolated from a screen of an environmental bacterial isolate library for resistance to the plant flavonoid berberine. We detected the colistin resistance gene mcr-9, located on an IncFII(pECLA) plasmid.

Keywords: berberine; berberine resistance; coliston resistance; flavanoid.
