From: Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis related Enterococcus cecorum isolates are genetically distinct from the commensal population and are more virulent in an embryo mortality model

Figure 1

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. PFGE patterns from E. cecorum isolates obtained from sites of isolation from different chickens within different farms. Blue dots: samples from outbreak chickens, orange dots: samples from non-diseased chickens. Each pulsotype is shown with the corresponding E. cecorum isolate number (Farm. Chicken number. Isolate number “-” means unknown) and sites of isolation. Analysis shows 16 pulsotype groups (P1-P16), and 27 unique patterns. The dendrogram was generated by cluster analysis using the Ward method and the Dice similarity coefficient.
