Article Synopsis
- Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli, commonly found in the environment, poses significant health risks to both humans and animals due to their resistance to common β-lactam antibiotics.
- A study investigated the presence and genetic traits of ESBL-producing E. coli on beef cattle farms in Sichuan-Chongqing, China, finding that 102 out of 222 isolates tested positive for ESBL phenotypes.
- The research revealed that the bla gene was the most prevalent among the isolates, with significant numbers belonging to phylogroup A and specific sequence types, indicating a strong association with E. coli infections in the region.
strain ZZCCN01 was isolated from the cardiac blood of a dead beef cow with a lung infection and a foam-like secretion from the nostril. Here, we introduce the 5.1-Mb draft genome sequence, which comprises 105 scaffolds, and the corresponding annotation.

BVDV infection typically leads to an impaired immune response in cattle. In the present study, we investigated the effect of Forsythoside A (FTA) on BVDV infection of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
