Abstract

Four Escherichia coli isolates with moderate or high heat resistance were sequenced. Through sequencing, truncated transmissible locus of stress tolerance (tLST) variants tLST1 and tLSTa were identified in the three isolates. The most identified tLST genes (clpK and hsp) are responsible for the homeostasis module.
