Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity among 22 Escherichia coli strains isolated from chickens with swollen-head syndrome (SHS), an acute respiratory disease of domestic poultry, and 93 strains isolated from birds with colibacillosis was assessed on the basis of allelic variation at 20 enzyme-encoding loci detected by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis. SHS isolates from Spain and Canada were polymorphic at 14 loci and were...
