Abstract: In this study, the presence of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) and virulence factor genes were investigated in previously isolated 32 high-level aminoglycoside-resistant (HLAR) Enterococcus strains isolated from retail chicken meat in Turkey. At least one AME-encoding gene was detected in HLAR enterococci by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The ant(6ʹ)-Ia was identified as the most prevalent (87.5%, 28/32) AME gene. The aph(3ʹ)-IIIa (78.13%, 25/32), ant(4ʹ)-Ia (68.75%, 22/32), aph(2ʹʹ)-Ib (62.5%, 20/32),… Show more
