We report here the draft genome sequence of two rare Salmonella serotypes, isolated from human faecal samples in India. The isolates were identified as Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Ceyco and serovar Hillegersberg by Wole genome sequencing (WGS) based serotype prediction. The genomic similarity of study isolates was identified by clustering with the global collection of Salmonella sp. available in EnteroBase and SISTR based on their cgMLST profile. Phylogenetic analysis showed the study isolates were closer to S. Detmold and other unknown serovars from serogroup D2. The information generated from genome sequencing of two rare S. enterica serovar will improve the overall understanding of the epidemiology of this clinically relevant pathogen.
