Genome evolution and the emergence of pathogenicity in avian Escherichia coli

It is unclear how gut-dwelling E. coli bacteria often emerge to cause systemic infection in chickens. Here, Mageiros et al. use population genomics and pangenome-wide association studies to identify genetic elements associated with pathogenicity in avian E. coli.
