Genomics-based molecular epidemiology of human clinical and feedlot cattle C. jejuni isolates in Alberta, Canada

ABSTRACT: Oligonucleotide DNA microarrays were used as a platform to compare C. jejuni isolates from feedlot cattle and human clinical cases from Alberta. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis was performed on 87 isolates (46 bovine, 41 human) obtained within the same geographical regions and time frame. In addition, We also performed gene association analysis to determine if any genes may be differentially distributed between human and cattle sources or between clusters dominated by either human or cattle isolates (“human enriched” vs “cattle enriched”). Keywords: Comparative Genomic Hybridization; Genomic epidemiology; Gene-association study Data from 119 microarrays is included in the dataset, representing the 89 bacterial strains analyzed (87 field isolates, 2 control labora
