Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity and population structure of Escherichia coli isolates from small-scale dairy farms were used to assess the ability of E. coli to spread within the farm environment and between neighboring farms. A total of 164 E. coli isolates were obtained from bovine feces, bedding, cow teats and milk from 6 small-scale dairy farms. Ward's clustering grouped the isolates into 54 different random amplified...
