Whole genome sequence analysis reveals high genomic diversity and potential host-driven adaptations among multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli from pre-weaned dairy calves

Food-producing animals such as dairy cattle are potential reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), with multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms such as Escherichia coli observed in higher frequency in young calves compared to older cattle. In this study, we characterized the genomes of enteric MDR...
