Phylogenetic background and habitat drive the genetic diversification of <i>Escherichia coli</i>

2020-02-13

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli is a commensal of birds and mammals, including humans. It can act as an opportunistic pathogen and is also found in water and sediments. Since most population studies have focused on clinical isolates, we studied the phylogeny, genetic diversification, and habitat-association of 1,294 isolates representative of the phylogenetic diversity of more than 5,000, mostly non-clinical, isolates originatin...
