Campylobacter coli is an important foodborne pathogen that can cause inflammation of the intestine and diarrhea in humans. The complete genomes, including megaplasmids, of C. coli strains YH501, YH503, and YH504 from retail chicken were sequenced and assembled. Whole-genome analysis revealed a number of virulence and antibiotic resistance genes, suggesting significant potential for these poultry-originating isolates to cause human disease.
空肠弯曲菌是一种重要的食源性病原体,可导致人类肠道炎症和腹泻。对来自零售鸡肉的空肠弯曲菌菌株YH501、YH503和YH504的完整基因组(包括大质粒)进行了测序和组装。全基因组分析揭示了许多毒力和抗生素抗性基因,表明这些源自家禽的分离株具有引起人类疾病的巨大潜力。
