Non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica is a leading cause of gastrointestinal illnesses in the United States. Among the 2,600 different S. enterica serovars, Infantis has been significantly linked to human illnesses and is frequently recovered from broilers and chicken parts in the U.

Background: Salmonella Infantis is an emerging multidrug-resistant pathogen worldwide due to the acquisition of a megaplasmid, plasmid of emerging Salmonella Infantis (pESI). Reported initially in poultry, the distribution of pESI-harboring S. Infantis in other food types, including seafood, is unknown.

The bacterial species () is a highly diverse pathogen containing more than 2600 distinct serovars, which can infect a wide range of animal and human hosts. Recent global emergence of multidrug resistant strains, from serovars Infantis and Muenchen is associated with acquisition of the epidemic megaplasmid, pESI that augments antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity. One of the main pESI's virulence factors is the potent iron uptake system, yersiniabactin encoded by , and gene cluster.

Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis (S. infantis) is an important emerging pathogen, associated with poultry and poultry products and related to an increasing number of human infections in many countries. A concerning trend among S.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFSalmonella enterica serovar Infantis presents an ever-increasing threat to public health because of its spread throughout many countries and association with high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). We analyzed whole-genome sequences of 5,284 Salmonella Infantis strains from 74 countries, isolated during 1989-2020 from a wide variety of human, animal, and food sources, to compare genetic phylogeny, AMR determinants, and plasmid presence. The global Salmonella Infantis population structure diverged into 3 clusters: a North American cluster, a European cluster, and a global cluster.
