Abstract excerpt
In the present study, 100 Avian-Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) isolates from colibacillosis-suspected broilers and 100 Avian Faecal Escherichia coli (AFEC) isolates from healthy broilers in Iran were examined by PCR for confirmation of their serogroups and phylogenetic background, and their association with ten virulence-associated genes (VAG) including fimC, iutA, chuA, sitA, iss, cvaA/B, hylA, stx1, stx2,...
