a phylogenetic analysis of astragalus sect. alopecuroidei based on nrdna its as well as morphological character data is presented. a total of fifty informative morphological characters were analyzed to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships for 23 taxa of the sect. alopecuroidei and two species of sect. laxiflori plus a. sieversianus and a. caryolobus as outgroups. the present analysis revealed...

background: the emergence and propagation of different phylogenetic groups of antimicrobial-resistant e. coli have become a worldwide health concern in human and veterinary medicine. therefore, the evaluation of the phylogenetic distribution of antibiotic-resistant e. coli is important for therapeutic and economic purposes. the aims of this study were to determine phylogenetic groups and patter...

Introduction: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infectious diseases, and Escherichia coli is known as the most dominant causative agent of this infection in 90-80% of patients. There is not much information about the phylogenetic groups, types, and virulence factors of E. coli, causing UTIs from Iran. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibi...

colibacillosis is of the most common infectious bacterial diseases of poultry.a total of 170 escherichia coli isolates obtained from broiler and layer flocks implicated with colibacillosis between 2011 and 2014 were subjected to phylogenetic analysis. among 150 e. coli isolates from typical lesions of local and systemic colibacillosis, 54 (31.8%), 37 (21.7%), 36 (21.2%) and 43 (25.3%) isolates ...

BACKGROUND: Escherichia coli (E.coli) is one of the most common and important causative bacterium of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in both dogs and humans. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify virulence genes and a phylogenetic group of E. coli isolated from the urine of dogs suffering from UTIs. METHODS: <em...
