Genomic diversity of <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolates from backyard chickens and guinea fowl in the Gambia

2020-05-15

Abstract excerpt

Chickens and guinea fowl are commonly reared in Gambian homes as affordable sources of protein. Using standard microbiological techniques, we obtained 68 caecal isolates of Escherichia coli from ten chickens and nine guinea fowl in rural Gambia. After Illumina whole-genome sequencing, 28 sequence types were detected in the isolates (four of them novel), of which ST155 was the most common (22/68, 32%). These strai...
