Prevalence of mutation in gyrA gene at Thr-86 position in Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli isolated from poultry and humans

The aim of the following research was to analyse the presence of mutation in gyrA gene in C. jejuni and C. coli strains isolated from broilers, laying hens, turkeys collected between 1994-1996 and 2005-2008, and isolated from humans in 2006. The results of the research demonstrated that the highest percentage (100%) of the isolates showing mutation in gyrA gene was observed in Campylobacter coli strains isolated from turkeys between 2005 and 2008.
