Global analysis of the genomic diversity, antimicrobial resistance and potential vaccine candidates carried by the major global bovine pathogen Streptococcus uberis.

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus uberis is a leading cause of bovine mastitis, resulting in large economic losses and welfare issues for affected cows. However, relatively little is known about the global distribution and emergence of bovine mastitis-causing lineages and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance or virulence genes in the species. Here, we present a global framework for S. uberis based on whole-genome sequencing...
