Salmonella
enterica serovar Gallinarum (
S
. Gallinarum) is an avian-specific pathogen responsible for fowl typhoid, a severe systemic disease with high mortality in chickens. This disease poses a substantial burden to the poultry industry, particularly in developing countries like China. However, comprehensive genome datasets on
S
. Gallinarum are lacking. Here, we present the most extensive
S
. Gallinarum genome dataset, comprising 574 well-collated samples. This dataset consists of 366 genomes sequenced in our laboratory and 208 publicly available genomes, collected from various continents over the past century. Using
in silico
prediction, we categorized
S
. Gallinarum into three distinct biovars. Regarding antimicrobial resistance, 238 strains (41.5%) carried antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) with a total of 635 records, while 232 strains (40.4%) exhibited multi-drug resistance. Mobile genomic elements (MGEs) serve as critical drivers for ARGs. Our dataset includes 5,636 MGEs records, with most MGEs belonging to prophages and plasmids. This dataset expands our understanding of the genomic characteristics of
S
. Gallinarum, providing valuable resources for future genomic studies to improve disease management.
