Domestic and game pigeons as reservoirs for Escherichia coli harbouring antimicrobial resistance genes
Objectives: In Iran, pigeons are kept and bred on the roofs of houses, which indicates the potential significance of pigeons in the dispersal of antimicrobial resistant Escherichia coli strains. Here we characterized antimicrobial resistance genotypes in relation to phenotypic presentations and phyl...
