Occurrence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants among Escherichia coli strains isolated from animals in Tunisia: Specific pathovars acquired qnr genes

Objectives: The aim of this study was to characterise Escherichia coli strains harbouring plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes recovered from various samples (n = 116) from healthy and diarrhoeic animals in Tunisia. Methods: All nalidixic acid-resistant E. coli isolates were screened f...
