Short reads-based characterization of pathotype diversity and drug resistance among E. coli isolated from patients attending regional referral hospitals of Tanzania

The aim of this project was to determine the pathotype diversity and antimicrobial resistance among E. coli from patients attending regional referral hospitals in Tanzania. It investigated a subcollection of the bacterial isolates collected at six regional referral hospitals in Tanzania as part of the Fleming Fund SeqAfrica project, a UK Aid funded initiative to strengthen AMR surveillance in Africa.
