Abstract excerpt
In this study, we tested the capability of enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) and repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect genetic diversity among Escherichia coli strains isolated from chickens bearing clinical signs of colibacillosis and compared the genotypes so obtained with the O:H serotypes and virulence of those strains. The DNAs from 50 avian E....
