Resumo

Here we report the draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant (MDR) Aeromonas hydrophila strain belonging to sequence type 508 (ST508) isolated from a human bloodstream infection. Assembly and annotation of this draft genome resulted in 5 028 498 bp and revealed the presence of 16S rRNA methylase rmtD and bla(CTX-M-131) genes encoding high-level resistance to aminoglycosides and cephalosporins, respectively, as well as multiple virulence genes. This draft genome can provide significant information for understanding mechanisms on the establishment and treatment of infections caused by this pathogen.
