Origin and development of two Escherichia coli clones vertically transferred in broiler production.

Abstract excerpt

Investigation of clonal development of dominant persistent clones of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is important to understand their evolution and to gain knowledge to improve their control in poultry production. Whole-genomic sequencing, including hybrid assembled genomes of short and long reads, was used to analyse clonal persistence and evolution of APEC. Two vertically transferred E. coli clones,...
