Abstract
Esc/2eic/2ia coli is a normal intestinal inhabitant in majority of the animals including humans. It is a versatile commensal but capable of causing both intestinal and extraintestinal diseases such as diarrhoea, septicaemia, urinary tract infections and neonatal meningitis (Orskov and Orskov, 1992). The strains of E. coli are diverse with its genome plasticity and the population structure of this organism remains mostly clonal (Touchon et a1., 2009). Despite this,
E. coli can be delineated into six prominent
phylogenetic groups-A, B1, B2, D, E and F. Determining the phylogroup of E. coli help to understand the path-ogenicity and also give an insight of how these pathogenic strains acquire virulence genes.
