Characterization of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from free-range helmeted guineafowl

Characterization of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from free-range helmeted guineafowl

Abstract Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) isolates from apparently healthy free range helmeted guineafowl were characterized. Most of them had a high frequency of virulence associated genes, multi drug resistance and high pathogenicity. We demonstrated that helmeted guineafowl have potential...
