Campylobacter strains were collected in a survey of fresh chicken carcasses in Pennsylvania farmers' markets. Three Campylobacter coli strains were observed to have unique sequence variations in their gyrase subunit B genes, compared with other Campylobacter strains. The strains were sequenced and analyzed, producing genome sequences consisting of single closed chromosomes.
