The food-borne pathogens Campylobacter jejuni (Cj) and C. coli (Cc) produce capsular polysaccharides (CPS) that are the major antigenic determinants of the classical Penner serotyping system that distinguishes these Campylobacters into 65 groups. In order to examine the genomic diversity of Cj and Cc, and to identify DNA signatures for the development of faster and cheaper typing assays, we have determined the draft genome sequences of 38 Cj and 18 Cc strains representing 56 different Penner serotypes.
It is recommended to cite the accession numbers that are assigned to data submissions, e.g. the GenBank, WGS or SRA accession numbers. If individual BioProjects need to be referenced, state that "The data have been deposited with links to BioProject accession number PRJNA206197 in the NCBI BioProject database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/)."
