“…However, a shift in the general characteristics of the E. coli population in the 2‐year period between the two studies cannot be entirely excluded. These findings are in accord with previous reports [7,13], as is the finding that the isolates are genetically heterogeneous [9]; however, in contrast to fluoroquinolone‐sensitive isolates [10], some evidence of clonal spread was revealed. It is interesting to note that the two largest clonal groups belonged to phylogroups B2 and D.…”

“…FQREC isolates tend to be multiresistant, belong to less pathogenic phylogroups (A and B1), have fewer virulence factors [6,7], and are reported to be under‐represented in invasive infections [8]. Only limited clonality has been reported [9]. The aims of the present study were to characterise uropathogenic isolates of FQREC from Norway, and to examine the evidence of their clonal spread.…”

“…From the original 3995 isolates, almost 400 were confirmed by Vitek 2 (bioMérieux, Marcy-l'Etoile, France). 11 Previously published validation of identification of E. coli by CHROMagar yielded a positive predictive value of 0.93, which is comparable to our results.…”

“…With a carefully age-and sex-matched cohort of hospitalized UTI patients, we show, as previously reported, 12,13,15,19,25,27 that the B2 E. coli strains are less resistant to antibiotics than other phylogenetic E. coli groups and that this concerns quinolones in particular. Although the molecular mechanism is still unknown, these data indicate a role of the genomic background in the emergence of the resistance gained by point mutations, as also reported for extended b-lactamases, which are mobile elements that are horizontally transferred.…”

“…B2 group strains appear more sensitive to antibiotics than strains of the other phylogenetic groups, 10,20 especially to quinolones. 12,13,15,19,25,27 Likely, in the human community commensal environment strains from the B2 group would tend to carry fewer integrons than the others. 23 To gain a better understanding of the relationships between resistance, integrons, phylogenetic groups, and host environment, we selected three groups of human urinary tract infection (UTI) E. coli isolates that are known to comprise a high rate of B2 strains, 11 for the present study.…”
