Clonal relation between Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Dublin strains of bovine and food origin in Germany.

ABSTRACT: Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Dublin (S. Dublin) is a host-adapted serovar causing enteritis and/or systemic diseases in cattle. As the serovar is not host-restricted, it may cause infections in other animals, including humans with severe illness and higher mortality rates than other non-typhoidal serovars. As human infections are mainly caused by contaminated milk, milk products and beef, information on the genetic relationship of S. Dublin strains from cattle and food should be evaluated. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 144 S. Dublin strains from cattle and 30 strains from food origin was performed. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) revealed mostly sequence type ST-10 from both, cattle and food isolates. In total, 14 of 30 strains fro
