Genomic characterization and therapeutic potential of five broad-spectrum lytic bacteriophages against multidrug-resistant avian pathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (APEC)
2026-05-22
Abstract excerpt
Colibacillosis, caused by Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC), result in substantial economic losses in global poultry production. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) APEC poses zoonotic risks through horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. Bacteriophage therapy emerges as a safe alternative to antibiotherapy; however, comprehensive characterization of phages targeting MDR-APEC fr...
