Introduction Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infections are the most common cause
of secretory diarrhea in suckling and post-weaning piglets. For the latter, Shiga toxin …

Comprehensive whole-genome sequencing was performed on two multi-drug-resistant
Escherichia coli strains isolated from cattle manure from a typical dairy farm in Poland in …

Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Agona has a history of causing food-borne
outbreaks and any emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates in novel food products …

Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia (E.) coli (ESBL-EC) in the clinical
setting have emerged as a major threat to public and animal health. Wildlife, including …

Food contamination with pathogenic Escherichia coli can cause severe disease. Here, we
report the isolation of a multidrug resistant strain (A23EC) from fresh spinach. A23EC …

Conjugation represents one of the main mechanisms facilitating horizontal gene transfer in
Gram-negative bacteria. This work describes methods for the study of the mobilization of …

The present study shows the genomic characterization of three pathogenic Escherichia coli
hybrid strains. All strains were previously characterized as diarrheagenic pathotypes (DEC) …

In this study, the genomes of 22 Enterobacteriaceae isolates from fresh produce and herbs
obtained from retail markets in northern Germany were completely sequenced with MiSeq …

In many regions of the world, including the United States, human and animal fecal genetic
markers have been found in flood waters. In this study, we use high‐resolution whole …

Conjugation plays an important role in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes.
Besides, this process is influenced by many biotic and abiotic factors, especially …
