Abstract

We report here the draft genome sequence of a Haitian variant strain, W4-13, isolated from Kerala, South India, possessing cholera toxin gene in chromosomes I and II. The sequence will be useful to achieve a profound understanding on its evolution, with emphasis on its pathogenesis and antibiotic resistance.
