Genomic comparison of Escherichia coli serotype O103:H2 isolates with and without verotoxin genes: implications for risk assessment of strains commonly found in ruminant reservoirs

INTRODUCTION: Escherichia coli O103:H2 occurs as verotoxigenic E. coli (VTEC) carrying only vtx (1) or vtx (2) or both variants, but also as vtx-negative atypical enteropathogenic E. coli (aEPEC).
