Why is it important?
Egg-associated salmonellosis is an important public health problem in many countries. Complete genome sequencing of these bacteria will provide more information and insight into the research about egg-associated salmonellosis
Perspectives
Complete genome sequencing of Salmonella Enteritidis will help people better understand salmonellosis and create better prevention and control measures for the disease. It will greatly facilitate developing new, better, quicker, and more accurate detection methods for the pathogen.
