We investigated 181 C. jejuni isolates from humans, chickens, and environmental sources in Vietnam, Thailand, Pakistan, and the United Kingdom for T6SS. The marker was most prevalent in human and chicken isolates from Vietnam.Mahidol UniversityMedicineIdentification of possible virulence marker from campylobacter jejuni isolatesArticleSCOPUS10.3201/eid2006.130635
