Our aim was to investigate the prevalence of ST131 subclones in retail chicken meat
237 fluoroquinolone resistant and ESBL/AmpC producing E.coli isolates were analyzed
Nine isolates were ST131, of which six and three were H30-R and H30-Rx, respectively
This is the first report of ST131 subclones H30-R and H30-Rx in retail chicken meat
The role of food chain in transmission of subclones H30-R and H30-Rx could be strengthened by our findings
