What is Investigating the dynamics of Salmonella contamination in integrated poultry companies using a whole genome sequencing approach about?
The study of non-typhoid __Salmonella__ in broiler integrations has been limited by the resolution of typing techniques. Although serotyping of __Salmonella__ isolates is used as a traditional approach, it is not of enough resolution to clearly understand the dynamics of this pathogen within poultry companies. The aim of this research was to investigate the epidemiology and population dynamics of __Salmonella__ serotypes in 2 poultry integrations using a whole genome sequencing approach. Two hundred and forty-three __Salmonella__ isolates recovered from the broiler production chain of 2 integrated poultry companies were whole genome sequenced and analyzed with dedicated databases and bioinformatic software. The analyses of sequences revealed that __S__. Infantis was the most frequent serotype (82.3%). Most isolates showed a potential for resistance against medically important antibiotics and disinfectants. Furthermore, 97.5% of isolates harbored the pESI-like mega plasmid, that plays an important role in the global dissemination of AMR. SNP tree analysis showed that there were clones that are niche-specific while other ones were distributed throughout the broiler production chains.
