Abstract excerpt
In the U.S., Salmonella Kentucky is frequently isolated from food animals, but human cases are often linked to international travel. The objectives of this study were to utilize machine learning models to predict the animal hosts (bovine or poultry) and geographic origin (North America or not North America) of S. Kentucky isolates, and to identify the genomic features associated with host specificity. Core-genome...
