“…Differences in VF, O-group and phylogroup composition among commensal and extra-intestinal pathogenic strains have been often observed (e.g. Johnson et al 2004; Kudinha et al 2013; Clermont et al 2017; Mereghetti et al 2002; Kauffmann 1947) contrary to difference in clone diversity (Caugant et al 1983). Here, we explicitly quantify the difference in ST diversity (ST number, size and distribution) among commensal and extra-intestinal pathogenic strains.…”

“…Infections caused by ExPEC strains account for serious morbidity and mortality in immune-compromised and in hospitalized patients (Mereghetti et al, 2002;Foxman and Brown, 2003;Bagshaw and Laupland, 2006). Unfortunately, due to extreme heterogeneity of ExPEC populations and their increased resistance to antimicrobials, efficient identification and subsequent eradication of potentially pathogenic resident strains in patients at high-risk groups are difficult (Foxman et al, 2000;Gaynes and Edwards, 2005).…”
