Whole-Genome Sequencing Reveals the Presence of the <i>bla</i><sub>CTX-M-65</sub> Gene in Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing and Multi-Drug-Resistant Clones of <i>Salmonella</i> Serovar Infantis Isolated from Broiler Chicken Environments in the Galapagos Islands

<i>Salmonella</i> Infantis, a common contaminant of poultry products, is known to harbor mobile genetic elements that confer multi-drug resistance (MDR) and have been detected in many continents. Here, we report four MDR <i>S</i>. <i>Infantis</i> strains recovered...
