Genomic surveillance reveals antibiotic resistance gene transmission via phage recombinases within sheep mastitis-associated Streptococcus uberis
7 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Streptococcus uberis is one of the main causative agents of ovine mastitis, however little is known about this global, environmental pathogen and its genomic mechanisms of disease. In this study, we performed genomic analysis on 46 S. uberis isolates collected from mastitis-infected sheep in Sardinia (Italy). RESULTS: Genomes were assigned into lineage clusters using PopPUNK, which found 27 distinct...
