Genomic diversity of non-diarrheagenic fecal Escherichia coli from children in sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia and their relatedness to diarrheagenic E. coli

Escherichia coli is a human pathogen and a member of the healthy microbiota. Here, using samples from children of low and middle-income living in sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia countries, the authors characterize the genomic landscape of non-diarrheagenic fecal E. coli, finding similarities to di...
