Genome sequences of copper resistant and sensitive Enterococcus faecalis strains isolated from copper-fed pigs in Denmark

Table 5 Copper and antibiotic resistance genes in E. faecalis strains. S1, S18 and S32 represent the three Cu resistant E. faecalis strains, and S12, S17 and S19 represent the three Cu sensitive E. faecalis strains
