Bovine Campylobacter jejuni Strains Differ from Human and Chicken Strains in an Analysis of Certain Molecular Genetic Markers

The association of four new genetic markers with a chicken, bovine, or human host was studied among 645 Campylobacter jejuni isolates. The γ-glutamate transpeptidase gene and dmsA were common in human and chicken isolates but uncommon among bovine isolates. In the t test, bovine isolates differed si...

Zusammenfassung:	The association of four new genetic markers with a chicken, bovine, or human host was studied among 645 Campylobacter jejuni isolates. The γ-glutamate transpeptidase gene and dmsA were common in human and chicken isolates but uncommon among bovine isolates. In the t test, bovine isolates differed significantly (P < 0.05) from human and chicken isolates.
