In this study, 205 Salmonella enterica serovar Corvallis strains were obtained from humans and foods from Guangdong, Guangxi, and Shanghai in China from 2009 to 2017 to assess drug resistance and molecular epidemiology. These isolates displayed high rates of resistance to sulfisoxazole (94.15%) and tetracycline (77.56%). Surprisingly, the rate of resistance to ciprofloxacin reached 21.46%. Moreover, 63.9% of the strains displayed multidrug resistance. Detection of quinolone genes showed that 97.56% of the strains had single mutations (T57S) in parC. The plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes qnrS, aac(6′)-Ib-cr, and qnrB, were also detected. The extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBLS) gene that was most common among the isolates was bla_TEM-1 (18.05%). These S. Corvallis isolates are the first to date, that have been reported to possess bla_CTX-M-55 or bla_NDM-5. Additionally, 95.61% of isolates were biofilm producers. The streptomycin resistance rate was higher in strong biofilm producers (87.50%) than in moderate (37.93%) and weak (26.49%) biofilm producers. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) showed that some strains from different sources had the same genotype. These isolates may be transmitted to humans through food and therefore the monitoring of these isolates should be strengthened in China.
