We isolated Enterococcus species that colonized in the African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) in order to investigate their genetic relatedness and antimicrobial susceptibility. A total of 219 isolates were obtained and a 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed they were classified into Enterococcus avium, E. casseliflavus, E. faecalis, E. faecium, E. hirae, or E. mundtii. Multilocus sequence typing of E. faecalis and E. faecium isolates indicated that some of the isolates showed an evolutionary distance that was far from the primary founders. The antimicrobial susceptibility of the enterococcal isolates suggested that the significant transmission of antimicrobial resistance via human intervention had not yet occurred.
我们分离出了在非洲水牛(非洲野水牛)体内定殖的肠球菌,以研究它们的遗传相关性和抗菌药物敏感性。共获得219株分离株,16S rRNA基因序列分析表明它们被分类为鸟肠球菌、格氏肠球菌、粪肠球菌、屎肠球菌、海氏肠球菌或蒙氏肠球菌。粪肠球菌和屎肠球菌分离株的多位点序列分型表明,一些分离株显示出与原始奠基者的进化距离较远。肠球菌分离株的抗菌药物敏感性表明,通过人为干预导致的抗菌药物耐药性的显著传播尚未发生。
