Our study on Australian silver gulls reveals fascinating insights into E. coli populations, including carriage of the transmissible locus of stress tolerance, linked to sanitation resistance. doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.… #AMR #gulls #OneHealth #genomics @UTS_Science @AIMI_UTS

Check out our new mSystems paper where we dive into #Ecoli ST95 phylogeny, plasmid carriage, AMR traits an host range/source attribution! We analysed 668 ST95 isolates and an additional 34,176 E. coli genomes to contextualise our findings. (thread) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3507…
