Abstract excerpt
The clonal analysis of a diverse collection of Salmonella Enteritidis indicates that most strains belong to a single multilocus genotype (i.e., ET-3) regardless of phage type, geographic origin, or time of isolation that spanned over 2 decades (1978 to 2004). Attachment and invasion assays, however, indicate that, among ET-3 isolates, there is a distinct invasive bacterial subpopulation that is more readily...
