Genomic diversity of pathogenic multidrug-resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> across asymptomatic children and livestock in Nairobi, Kenya
2025-12-03
Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic Escherichia coli represents a critical public health threat, yet their genomic characteristics in community settings remain poorly described. We sequenced 77 multidrug-resistant isolates from children (n=59), livestock (n=17), and food (n=1) in peri-urban Nairobi, Kenya. Phylogenetic analysis revealed polyphyletic diversity across phylogroups and sequence types without host-specific clustering. We dete...
