Complete Genome Sequences of Two Phage-Like Plasmids Carrying the CTX-M-15 Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase Gene

Two similar phage-like plasmids carrying CTX-M-15 resistance cassettes were identified from two environmental isolates. They demonstrate strong nucleotide sequence identity to the phage-like plasmid pECOH89 and bacteriophage SSU5.
