Genome assembly of E. coli strain mixes

Long-read sequencing with MinION for the detection of STEC in culture swipes harboring different combinations of STEC and STEC-LST and other E. coli strains.  

     

E. coli strains in each assembly: 

Experiment 1

STEC O145:H28 (~10%) + 

STEC-LST O145:H28 (~90%).

Experiment 2

STEC O145:H28 (~10%) 

STEC-LST O145:H28 ~7%)  

EPEC O21 (~23%)  

EAEC O104:H4 (~29%)  

ExPEC O6:H31 (~29%) 

Experiment 3

STEC O145:H28 (~1-2%) 

STEC-LST O145:H28 (~21%)  

EPEC O21 (~12%)  

EAEC O104:H4 (~37%)  

ExPEC O6:H31 (~27%)
