Whole-genome sequence analysis of Salmonella Infantis isolated from raw chicken meat samples and insights into pESI-like megaplasmid.

This study indicated that pESI-like megaplasmid is widely disseminated within the tested S. Infantis strains of chicken meat, warranting further genomic studies on clinical strains from humans and animals to uncover the overall emergence and spread of this serovar.
