Draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant KPC–2 and SRT–2 co–producing Serratia marcescens strain isolated from a hospitalized patient in Chile

ConclusionsHere we report the genome of the first KPC-positive and multidrug-resistant S. marcescens strain identified in Chile, which co-harboured several ARGs. The genome sequence of S. marcescens UCO-366 provides an insight into the antibiotic-resistance characteristics in this species in this country, and offers important data for further genomic studies on this critical priority pathogen.
