Core genome phylogeny of E. coli sampled from dog hosts across US and Canadian regions participating in the surveillance program, with geographic regions, phylogroups, and antibiotic resistance phenotypes annotated on that phylogeny. The map was created using the ne_states function within the rnaturalearth R package, the geom_sf function within the sf R package, and ggplot2.

Infections caused by antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli are the leading cause of death attributed to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worldwide, and the known AMR mechanisms involve a range of functional proteins. Here, we employed a pan-genome wide association study (GWAS) approach on over 1,000 E. coli isolates from sick dogs collected across...
