Comparative Genomic and Phylogenetic Analysis of <i>Salmonella enterica</i> Isolated From Donkey.

ABSTRACT: Salmonella is one of the most prevalent foodborne and zoonotic pathogens threatening global public health and food safety. Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Abortusequi (S. Abortusequi) is frequently reported as the etiological agent of equine abortion, septicemia, and polyarthritis. Currently, comprehensive studies on the virulence traits, evolutionary dynamics, and genomic diversity of donkey S. Abortusequi are limited. In this study, we assessed the genomic epidemiology, antibiotic resistance, and pathogenic traits of a ST251 S. Abortusequi strain (XJP1), isolated from donkey, using the core genome single nucleotide polymorphism (cgSNP) phylogenetic analysis, core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST), comparative genomic anal
