TABLE 5.

Distribution of putative virulence genes among 61 canine AREF isolates

Gene Occurrence (no. [%] of isolates with gene) in:
CC17 group (n = 47) Non-CC17 group (n = 14)
esp 0 0
hyl 0 0
orf903b 47 (100) 12 (86)
orf904.5 0 0
orf906.7 24 (51) 12 (86)
orf2351 15 (32)a 0
orf2430 18 (38)a 0
a

This result shows that the gene is significantly associated with CC17 isolates (P < 0.05).

b

All isolates positive for orf903 also contained orf905 and orf907.
