Abstract excerpt
In this study, we genotyped Campylobacter isolates from wild birds by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and analysed their virulence genes by PCR with the aim to gain a deeper understanding of the epidemiology of Campylobacter infection. Amongst 60 Campylobacter isolates from 12 wild bird species, we identified 32 sequence types (STs; 29 STs from Campylobacter jejuni and 3 STs from Campylobacter coli). Clonal...
