subsp. <italic>enterica</italic>
serovar Kentucky is frequently isolated from healthy poultry and dairy cows and is occasionally isolated from people with clinical disease. A genomic analysis of 119 isolates collected in the United States from dairy cows, ground beef, poultry and poultry products, and human clinical cases was conducted. Results of the analysis demonstrated that the majority of poultry and bovine-associated <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky were sequence type (ST) 152. Several bovine-associated (n = 3) and food product isolates (n = 3) collected from the United States and the majority of human clinical isolates were ST198, a sequence type that is frequently isolated from poultry and occasionally from human clinical cases in Northern Africa, Europe and Southeast Asia. A phylogenetic analysis indicated that both STs are more closely related to other <italic>Salmonella</italic>
serovars than they are to each other. Additionally, there was strong evidence of an evolutionary divergence between the poultry-associated and bovine-associated ST152 isolates that was due to polymorphisms in four core genome genes. The ST198 isolates recovered from dairy farms in the United States were phylogenetically distinct from those collected from human clinical cases with 66 core genome SNPs differentiating the two groups, but more isolates are needed to determine the significance of this distinction. Identification of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST198 from dairy animals in the United States suggests that the presence of this pathogen should be monitored in food-producing animals.</p>

serovar Kentucky is frequently isolated from healthy poultry and dairy cows and is occasionally isolated from people with clinical disease. A genomic analysis of 119 isolates collected in the United States from dairy cows, ground beef, poultry and poultry products, and human clinical cases was conducted. Results of the analysis demonstrated that the majority of poultry and bovine-associated <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky were sequence type (ST) 152. Several bovine-associated (n = 3) and food product isolates (n = 3) collected from the United States and the majority of human clinical isolates were ST198, a sequence type that is frequently isolated from poultry and occasionally from human clinical cases in Northern Africa, Europe and Southeast Asia. A phylogenetic analysis indicated that both STs are more closely related to other <italic>Salmonella</italic>
serovars than they are to each other. Additionally, there was strong evidence of an evolutionary divergence between the poultry-associated and bovine-associated ST152 isolates that was due to polymorphisms in four core genome genes. The ST198 isolates recovered from dairy farms in the United States were phylogenetically distinct from those collected from human clinical cases with 66 core genome SNPs differentiating the two groups, but more isolates are needed to determine the significance of this distinction. Identification of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST198 from dairy animals in the United States suggests that the presence of this pathogen should be monitored in food-producing animals.</p>

<p><italic>Salmonella enterica</italic>
subsp. <italic>enterica</italic>
is a major cause of human and animal salmonellosis worldwide. The majority of human salmonellosis in the United States is caused by several serovars, namely Enteritidis, Typhimurium, Newport, and Javiana [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref001" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. Although it is currently assumed that all serovars are potentially pathogenic to humans, the association between <italic>S</italic>

and non-human animal illness as well as aymptomatic carriage is not as clear and frequently animals shedding several serovars such as Kentucky, Enteritidis, and Seftenberg are asymptomatic [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref001" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>

Kentucky has been identified as the most frequently isolated serovar from non-human non-clinical cases in the United States [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref001" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
] and until recently, has mostly been considered a concern with poultry due to its high prevalence in broilers as well as the established link between poultry products and human salmonellosis. Further, <italic>S</italic>

]. In recent years, research on dairy farms has demonstrated that <italic>S</italic>

<p>Both <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 and ST198 have been isolated globally, but the degree of relatedness among <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates recovered on a global scale is not yet known. Multi-Locus Sequence Typing (MLST) analyses have demonstrated that there are no common alleles between these two STs, indicating that they are distantly related [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
]. However, comprehensive description of the genomic differences between these two STs has not yet been conducted, and a comparison of the two may identify genomic factors involved in host-specificity and virulence potential. In a whole-genome phylogenetic analysis of <italic>S</italic>

Timme et al. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>

]. For <italic>S</italic>

][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
]. The historical application of serology to strain naming and description has thus been misleading in that distantly related strains that have acquired an antigenic coding region from the same source through LGT have been presumed to be similar based on this scheme, when in fact their genomes may be highly diverged.</p>
<p>The objective of this study was to infer the phylogeny of <italic>S</italic>

. Kentucky ST152 to bovine and poultry hosts/products, and to identify differences between <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 and ST198 genomes. To accomplish this we sequenced the genomes of 49 dairy-cow associated isolates and two poultry-associated isolates that were collected from across the United States, and coupled these data with the genomes of 68 isolates previously collected from poultry, poultry products and production environments and clinical cases in the United States, Canada, and the Middle East.</p>

Kentucky isolates from dairy cows were recovered from previously collected National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) samples as well as an eight-year dairy farm monitoring program conducted in south-central Pennsylvania [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref003" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref019" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] (two poultry-associated isolates were supplied by S. Parveen). Isolates were serogrouped following the methods of Herrera-Leon et al. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref020" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
]and Karns et al. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref021" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
]and serotypes were identified by National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL; Ames, IA). Isolates were streaked onto tryptic soy agar, and a single colony was inoculated in tryptic soy broth overnight at 37°C. This inoculum was centrifuged, decanted, and then processed for DNA extraction using a Qiagen DNeasy Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Nextera XT libraries were made for each sample and pooled into equimolar concentrations following the manufacturer’s instructions (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Paired-end sequencing (2 X 151 bp) was conducted on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencing platform with a High-Output flow cell. Data were demultiplexed and trimmed to remove adaptor sequences using the BCL2FastQ program and PhiX reads were removed using DeconSeq [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref022" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
]. Reads were further cleaned using Trimmomatic [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref023" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
] and assembled using SPAdes 3.6.2 [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref024" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
]. ST56 complex genomes were downloaded from NCBI GenBank prior to February 2016 and ST15 complex genomes were downloaded prior to December 2015 (PRJNA242614, PRJNA273513, PRJNA78335, PRJNA78339, PRJNA78337, PRJNA225734, PRJNA225734, PRJNA66693, PRJNA20069, PRJNA19457, PRJEB6491, PRJNA337914, and PRJNA186035) (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0161225.s001">S1 Table</xref>
). Genomes from BioProject PRJEB6491 [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
] were labeled as 915c and 917c in this analysis. Bovine-associated <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates used in this study will be provided upon request.</p>
<p>Three methods were used to identify SNPs among the <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky genomes. To identify high quality SNPs based on read coverage, Lyve-SET [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref026" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref027" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
]and CFSAN SNP Pipeline [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref028" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
] [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref029" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
] were used. For the Lyve-SET analysis SNP identification was conducted with a minimum 10X coverage requirement and the CGP read cleaner. When fastq files were not available, assembled genomes were included in the project/asm directory prior to SNP detection. Default settings were used for the CFSAN SNP Pipeline analysis. For this analysis only genomes for which fastq files or.sff files were available could be used for the SNP search and therefore one ST152 (strain CDC 191) genome and several ST198 genomes were excluded (strains CVM 43824, CVM 43780, CVM 43756). To identify SNPs in assembled genomes, Parsnp from the Harvest package was used [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref030" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref031" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>
]. Regions undergoing high levels of recombination were removed using the–x option (PhiPack) and all genomes were included using the–c option. The chromosome of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky CVM21988 was selected as the reference genome for all analyses. Parsnp was used to determine the core-genome SNP differences between <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 and ST198 genomes and other subclade A1 serovars identified by Timme et al. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. SNPs were annotated using snpEff [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref032" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
].</p>
<p>To infer the phylogeny of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152/318/2132 isolates the multi-fasta SNP matrices from each of the three SNP detection methods were imported into MEGA6 [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref033" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
] and RAxML [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref034" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>
]. Maximum Parsimony (MP) trees were inferred for all <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates (ST198, ST152/318/2132, and unknown STs) as well as <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates with non-<italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates using MEGA6. For phylogenetic inference of ST152/318/2132 isolates a Maximum Likelihood phylogeny was inferred using RAxML version 8.2.8 with the General Time Reversible (GTR) selected as the model of nucleotide substitution and all other parameters set to default settings. MP and ML analyses were each conducted with 1000 bootstrap replicates. The bootstrapped MP tree inferred from the Parsnp method of SNP detection was used to determine the genealogical sorting index (gsi) [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref035" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
] for bovine and poultry isolates using the GSI webserver [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref036" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
]. MLST data were retrieved from the University of Warwick <italic>Salmonella enterica</italic>
MLST database [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
]and through the Center for Genomic Epidemiology server [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref037" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
].</p>
<p>The resulting SNP matrices were also analyzed using the Bayesian clustering program STRUCTURE v2.3.4 [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref038" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
]. This program clusters individuals based on patterns of SNP differences without enforcing a bifurcating tree-like structure and, thus, may reveal additional details about the genomic content, similarity, and differences among isolates. In particular, STRUCTURE is suitable for detecting evidence for admixture (i.e., individuals whose genomes appear to be a combination of SNPs associated with distinct groups). STRUCTURE analyses were run with default settings and 60,000 generations, the first 10,000 of which served as the burnin. STRUCTURE results were visualized using DISTRUCT v1.1 [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref039" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>
].</p>
<p>Putative plasmid sequences were identified with PlasmidFinder [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref040" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>
] using the <italic>Enterobacteriaceae</italic>
database with the detection thresholds set to 95% sequence identity. The identified HSP fragments were compared to the NCBI database (BLASTN analysis) to identify similar plasmids. The presence/absence of protein coding genes was conducted using BLASTP. Putative genomic islands in <italic>S</italic>

].</p>
<p>Forty nine bovine-associated <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky isolates, and two poultry-associated isolates (including type strain ATCC 9263) were evaluated for their susceptibility to 25 antimicrobials (azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, tetracycline, nalidixic acid, cefoxitin, chloramphenicol, ceftriaxone, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ceftiofur, sulfisoxazole, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, ampicillin, streptomycin, cephalothin, cefotaxime, cefotaxime/clavulanic acid, ceftazidime, ceftazidime/clavulanic acid, imipenem, cefepime, cefpodoxime, piperacillin/tazobactam, meropenem, and cefazolin) using an automated microdilution procedure (Sensititre, ThermoFisher, Lenexa, KS) and specialty plates CVM3AGNF and ESB1F. Antimicrobial minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were interpreted based upon the epidemiological cut-off values (ECOFFs) used by the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS).</p>

<p>For five of the six analyses Lineage 1.0 is composed to several clusters of bovine isolates (n = 39) labeled as clusters 1.1, 1.2.1, 1.2.2 and 1.2.3. Cluster 1.1 consists of five ST152 isolates, one recovered from Texas and four from Wisconsin in 2007. The Wisconsin isolates grouped together, separately from the single Texas isolate. Cluster 1.2.1 consisted of one isolate from Pennsylvania and one from Virginia. Cluster 1.2.2 consisted of three isolates, two of them were typed as ST318 and collected from the same farm in Pennsylvania while the third isolate was a highly diverged ST152 isolate collected from Ohio. Cluster 1.2.3 consisted of 29 isolates, mainly from Pennsylvania with one isolate from New York, and two from Ohio. These results, however, are not consistent across all tree inference methods as the ML analysis of the SNPs detected with Parsnp place all bovine isolates except ARS-CC621 in Lineage 1.0 (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone.0161225.g003">Fig 3</xref>
), albeit with low bootstrap support, and consistent with other methods place all poultry isolates in Lineage 2.0.</p>
<p>The topology of Lineage 2.0 is moderately to strongly supported for all analyses and is composed of three to four clusters of strains. For the Parsnp MP and Lyve-SET and CFSAN SNP Pipeline MP and ML analyses the ancestral Lineage 2.0 node moderately to strongly supported (80 to 94%) with much stronger support for the node from which the bovine-associated isolate ARS-CC621 and all poultry-associated isolates descended for all analyses.</p>
<p>For all analyses excluding the Parsnp ML analysis the Lineage 2.0 clusters included one group of bovine/human-associated genomes, (cluster 2.1), one bovine-associated genome (cluster 2.2) and two groups of poultry-associated genomes (clusters 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 2.3.3.1, 2.3.3.2 and 2.4.1.1, 2.4.1.2, 2.4.1.3, and 2.4.2) which is consistent with the two dominant poultry-associated pulsotypes described by Ladely et al. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref013" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
]. Cluster 2.1 consists of seven isolates; three from Vermont, one from New York two from Wisconsin, and a distantly related human clinical isolate (CDC 191) from Wisconsin in 2002. Within this group the Vermont isolates are more closely related to each other than they are to the New York and Wisconsin isolates, and the Wisconsin isolates are more closely related to each other than they are to the New York or Vermont isolates. Cluster 2.2 consists of a single bovine-associated isolate (ARS-CC621) recovered in Texas in 2007.</p>
<p>Clusters 2.3.1 to 2.4.2 consist solely of isolates recovered from poultry, poultry products or processing plants and chicken feces/cecum samples collected across North America over a 12 year period. These clusters are monophyletic (geneaological sorting index = 1, P <0.0001) and do not include any bovine isolates indicating complete lineage sorting from the most recent common ancestor that gave rise to poultry-associated isolates. All poultry-associated clusters were moderately to strongly supported for all MP analyses, while ML analyses resulted in lower bootstrap support for clusters 2.4.1.1 to 2.4.2. Within the latter tree, the topologies of cluster 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 are not consistent with those of all other MP and ML trees.</p>
<p>Within the paraphyletic bovine-associated groups presence of different clusters in the same region (Wisconsin, Texas, and Pennsylvania) indicates multiple evolutionary sublineages of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 are circulating in dairy cow herds of the same region. For example, clusters 1.1 and 2.1 isolates were recovered from dairy cows in Wisconsin, cluster 1.1 and 2.2 isolates were recovered from Texas, and clusters 1.2.1, 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 isolates were detected in Pennsylvania. Thus, broad geographic dispersal of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky strains may have occurred repeatedly over time. Dairy farms are open environments in that there is a potential of wildlife intrusions on the farm and interactions with dairy cows [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref047" ref-type="bibr">47</xref>
]. For example, migratory birds are known vehicles of enteric bacteria and have been suggested to be a transmission route to livestock [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref048" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>
] and some wild bird species such as European starlings (<italic>Sturnus vulgaris</italic>
) are known to concentrate in areas of cattle operations where their presence has been associated with increased <italic>S</italic>
. <italic>enterica</italic>
contamination of feed and water [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref049" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
].</p>
<p>Within the poultry-associated clusters, a clear geographic pattern of distribution was not observed. For example, isolates from New Mexico, Tennessee, California, and British Columbia were identified in both clusters 2.3 and 2.4. Along with the presence of isolates from the same state in multiple clusters, geographically disparate isolates grouped together as well. For instance, some isolates from British Columbia (ABBSB1008-2) are sister taxa on the same phylogenetic sublineage with one from Georgia (CVM N43820), two regions that are separated by over 4500 km. Similarly, isolates from California also clustered with those from Tennessee, Massachusetts, New York, Colorado, and Washington State in cluster 2.4. This lack of geographic clustering among the poultry isolates is most likely due to the fact that the majority of these isolates were not collected on-farm, but rather after poultry product processing. Sequencing of isolates collected from farms would help identify any possible geographic signatures present in the currently circulating ST152 populations.</p>
<p>Based on the genomes analyzed in this study there is strong evidence to support the hypothesis that bovine-associated ST152 isolates are phylogenetically distinct from poultry-associated ST152 isolates. However, these data only reflect those <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 isolates collected in North America in recent years. It is known that ST152 isolates have been recovered from various sources worldwide and as far back as the 1950s, but what is not well documented in the literature is how frequently ST152 are recovered from cattle and poultry in other continents, or if this ST152-Bovine/Poultry relationship occurs in other regions globally, i.e, if the ST152 strains have entered bovine and/or poultry populations outside of North America or if they are circulating through the populations of other animals. At present, the metadata of only five ST152 strains from outside of North America are deposited in the MLST database and none of these were recovered from poultry or bovine sources, but rather fish meal and human clinical cases. Addition of other ST152 genomes from a variety of sources may result in a somewhat different phylogenetic relationship among strains than what is presented here, as well as the presence of other evolutionary lineages not detected in this study.</p>

<p>In a comparison of bovine-associated isolates to poultry-associated isolates an average of 217, 247, and 281 SNP differences were identified between the two by the Parsnp, Lyve-SET, and CFSAN SNP Finder analyses, respectively (Parsnp range = 62 to 308 SNPs, Lyve-SET range = 72 to 377 SNPs, and CFSAN SNP Pipeline range = 72 to 489). Within these SNP matrices there were four SNPs in protein coding genes, all resulting in non-synonymous mutations, that defined the bovine-poultry divergence for all strains (SeKA_A1094, SeKA_A2591, SeKA_A2812, SeKA_A4467) (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0161225.t002">Table 2</xref>

<p>A Bayesian analysis of SNP characters using the STRUCTURE v 2.3.4 program was consistent with the inferred ML and MP phylogenies (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone.0161225.g008">Fig 8</xref>
) in showing that there were primarily two distinct groups. However, these results provided additional details that help explain the placement of certain isolates within the phylogenetic analysis. For example, STRUCTURE showed that isolates within Cluster 1.2.3 have SNP profiles that are, for the most part, distinct from all others (blue profiles). In contrast, clusters 1.1, 1.2.1, and 1.2.2 showed evidence of admixture (blue/orange profiles) where those isolates had some proportion of SNPs that are indicative of clusters 1.2.3 (blue profiles) and Lineage 2.0 isolates (orange profiles). Cluster 1.1 isolates had SNP profiles more closely related to clusters 2.1 to 2.4 than to 1.2.3. All poultry isolates all show approximately similar SNP profiles with the basal cow isolates in clusters 2.1 and 2.2 indicating a high level of similarity among the cow and poultry isolates within evolutionary Lineage 2.0.</p>

. Kentucky 5349, was the most frequently detected plasmid sequence among the bovine-associated isolates. This sequence is ca. 92 kb, encodes 100 ORFs and is somewhat similar to plasmid sequences available in the NCBI database. These include plasmid pSTY1-1898 of <italic>S</italic>

<p>The majority of isolates that harbored plasmids were from the mid-Atlantic region of the United States. The absence of plasmids in many bovine-associated isolates (25%) suggests they are not necessary for survival or persistence within the bovine gastrointestinal tract or the dairy farm environment. However, the high level prevalence of IncI1 plasmids in cluster 1.2.3 isolates indicates that they may provide an advantage in these environments, and their restriction to isolates from the mid-Atlantic and Northeast United States may be indicative of their importance to the ecology of these strains in this region.</p>

Kentucky CVM29188 as a reference genome, there were 532 SNPs identified in the core-genomes of the ST198 isolates with an average of 209 SNP differences between the clusters 198.1 and 198.2 genomes (range = 169 to 228 SNPs). Cluster 198.1 isolates collected from agricultural sources in the United States had, for the most part, fewer SNPs between each other (mean = 138, range = 10 to 210) than they did with the human clinical isolates (cluster 198.2) (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0161225.t004">Table 4</xref>
). Similarly, the human clinical isolates (cluster 198.2) had fewer SNP differences between each other than they did with the cluster 198.1 isolates (mean = 32, range = 2 to 48). Interestingly, in a genome-genome comparison fewer SNPs were detected between ATCC 9263 and 198.2 genomes than between ATCC 9263 and 198.1 genomes. However, there were fewer SNPs between ATCC 9263 and the 198.1 cluster than ATCC 9263 and the 198.2 cluster when the average base pair differences over all of the sequence pairs were calculated per cluster.</p>

<p>A Bayesian analysis of SNP differences among isolates using the STRUCTURE program indicated that for the most part 198.1 and 198.2 isolates were distinct with the exception of ATCC 9263 and CVM N41913, which were basal within the cluster 198.1 lineage (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone.0161225.g010">Fig 10</xref>
). For these two isolates a proportion of SNPs detected in their genomes (ATCC 9263 = 0.24 and CVM N41913 = 0.078) were characteristic of those identified in 198.2.</p>

Sequencing of more ST198 genomes will allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the geophylogeny, global diversity, and presence of variable regions, such as SGI1, in these isolates.</p>
<p>It is important to note that ST198 has been isolated from avian and bovine sources in the United States [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
] indicating that it may have the potential to become established in poultry flocks, dairy herds, other livestock, and/or wildlife in the United States. However, more work needs to be conducted to understand its apparent limited distribution in these animals as well as the presence of any potential wildlife reservoirs. Further, more work needs to be conducted to estimate the virulence potential of the ST198 that is endemic in the United States and abroad.</p>

<p>In an analysis comparing only ST152 genomes to ST198 genomes 37,769 SNP differences were detected (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0161225.s003">S3 Table</xref>
). These SNPs were annotated and results demonstrated a significant number of polymorphisms in the protein-coding regions of the genome (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0161225.s004">S4 Table</xref>
). Of a total of 4452 annotated protein-coding genes, at least one SNP was detected in 3713 (83.5%) genes while no SNPs were detected in 737 (16.5%) genes. Three hundred seventeen of these genes had ≥ 20 conserved SNP differences with ST152. Of particular interest are several protein coding genes that are involved with interactions with the animal host environment, specifically in the colonization and infection processes by <italic>S</italic>
. <italic>enterica</italic>
. For example, 239 conserved SNP differences were identified in SeKA_A3913, a 16,683 bp ORF annotated as a conserved hypothetical protein, located within SPI-4, and involved in colonization of the bovine gastrointestinal tract [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref056" ref-type="bibr">56</xref>
]. It should be noted that there was an appreciable level of sequence divergence in this gene within ST152 isolates, particularly in isolate ABB1087-1, and this is most likely due to the likelihood of synonymous substitutions to accumulate across a large protein coding gene. SeKA_A0255 of ST152, an ORF homologous to the secreted virulence protein SlrP (STM0800) of <italic>S</italic>
. Typhimurium LT2, had 84 conserved SNP differences with ST198 genomes. A large repetitive protein (SeKA_A2250) homologous to BapA (STM2689) involved in host-colonization, organ invasion, and biofilm formation [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref057" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>

] encoded 51 conserved SNP differences between the two STs. ShdA (SeKA_A1896), an outer-membrane protein that is expressed in the intestine and is involved in long-term fecal shedding [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref059" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>
][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref060" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>
], had 48 conserved SNP differences between the two STs. Multiple effector proteins also demonstrated appreciable divergence between ST152 and ST198 (SeKA_A1084 = <italic>sseJ</italic>

] and their sequence divergence may result in different interactions in the human, cow, and poultry hosts, with the potential for different outcomes for each host. However, to fully assess the biological consequences of these differences <italic>in vivo</italic>
analyses targeting these regions would need to be conducted.</p>
<p>Regions identified in one ST but absent in the other, as well as regions present in both but flanked by unique ORFs were identified by conducting a whole-genome reciprocal BLASTP analysis (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0161225.t007">Table 7</xref>
). Sixteen regions of contiguous protein-coding genes present in ST198 genomes but absent in ST152 genomes, or highly diverged and flanked by unique regions were identified. Of these, six were completely or partially identified as genomic islands. Of particular interest in the ST198 genomes is an eight ORF region (region 3 in <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0161225.t007">Table 7</xref>
) responsible for sialic acid transport, a key feature of mammalian pathogens that allows them to scavenge sialic acid and utilize it as a carbon source in the host intestine (AEX15_07505, AEX15_07550) [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref064" ref-type="bibr">64</xref>
][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref065" ref-type="bibr">65</xref>
][<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref066" ref-type="bibr">66</xref>
]. This region is flanked on one side by a tRNA-Ser locus suggesting it is a putative transmissible genomic island. A BLASTP analysis demonstrates there is a unidirectional match at low to moderate amino acid similarity (23 to 70% similarity) when these ORFs are compared to ST152 genomes indicating they are highly diverged from ORFs with a similar functional annotations encoded in the ST152 backbone. This sialic acid transport region was identified in other <italic>S</italic>
. <italic>enterica</italic>
serotypes, many of which are known pathogens of humans and other mammals, such as <italic>S</italic>
. Typhimurium, <italic>S</italic>
. Paratyphi A, <italic>S</italic>
. Enteritidis, and <italic>S</italic>
. Dublin. Another region of interest within the ST198 genomes consists of 15 ORFs involved inositol catabolism (region 4) (AEX15_17525, AEX15_17625). This region was also identified in several other serovars and has been identified as a myo-Inositol utilization island by Kröger and Fuchs [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref067" ref-type="bibr">67</xref>
]. Chaudhuri <italic>et al</italic>
. [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref068" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
] demonstrated this region as being associated with proliferation in the host gut. Further, <italic>in vivo</italic>
studies have shown that salmonellae with an inactive <italic>reiD</italic>
(the orphan regulator of the myo-inositol utilization island) demonstrated reduced fitness following oral infections or chickens, calf, and pigs [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref068" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
]. <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 isolates, however, lack this island and, based on their prevalence in this environment, are suitably adapted for persistence in the bovine gut. A third region of interest is a nine ORF region identified within SPI-6 and encoding genes involved in alpha-fimbriae expression, a transcriptional regulator and a mobile genetic element (region 5) (AEX15_23130, AEX15_23170). This region is homologous to the Typhi-colonization factor (tcf) operon (STY0345-STY0348) and should be further investigated as a possible mechanism by which ST198 isolates colonize and infect human and animal hosts.</p>

<p>Seventeen contiguous regions of ST152 genomes were determined to be absent in ST198 genomes by a similar reciprocal BLASTP analysis. Eight of these regions were identified as putative genomic islands. Several of these regions were annotated as arrays of hypothetical proteins with no known function. Other islands encoded ORFs annotated as being involved in metabolic functions such as region 2 (ORFs involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, inositol catabolism, benzoate degradation) (SeKA_A0372, SeKA_A0399), region 9 (ORFs involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, mannitol utilization) (SeKA_A2624, SeKA_A2631), and region 15 (sorbitol dehydrogenase, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase) (SeKA_A0714, SeKA_A0725). The presence of these operons in strains frequently isolated from dairy cows and poultry suggests their roles in these environments should be further investigated.</p>
<p>In both STs ten homologous insertion loci flanking different protein encoding regions were identified, indicating that they may be hotspots for integration of laterally transferred DNA in <italic>S</italic>
. <italic>enterica</italic>
. Five insertion loci encoded tRNA sequences and one encoded a tmRNA sequence, which are known to be regions of genomic island insertion [<xref rid="pone.0161225.ref069" ref-type="bibr">69</xref>
]. For the most part the ST-specific islands were conserved among all members of each ST indicating that they may play a significant role in the ecology of these strains and/or they are anchored in the genomes of either host ST.</p>

<sec sec-type="conclusions" id="sec010"><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>Based on the analysis conducted herein, there is a phylogenetic difference between poultry-associated and bovine-associated North American <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 isolates which is discernible due to four core-genome SNPs. However, several clusters of bovine-associated <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 isolates are more closely related to some poultry-associated isolates than they are to other bovine-associated isolates. This divergence is also associated, <italic>in silico</italic>
, with the presence of several plasmids, one of which (ColV) has been demonstrated to enhance the colonization capacity of these strains in the chicken gastrointestinal tract, the other being a high frequency IncX1 plasmid with no known biological role. The influence of the core-genome SNPs and this IncX1 plasmid on the ecology of <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 in the bovine and poultry hosts, or survival in food sources or the environment should be further evaluated <italic>in vivo</italic>
.</p>
<p>A significant difference in gene content and core-genome nucleotide sequence divergence between <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST152 and ST198 isolates was also observed. Based on the methods used in this study, both sequence types are phylogenetically more closely related to other serovars than they are to each other and their shared nomenclature stems from the high level of similarity between their antigenic coding regions which may have transferred laterally between sequence types. Several genomic elements in ST198, such as a sialic acid transport region, inositol catabolism and a homolog of the Typhi colonization factor (tcf), and differences in amino acid sequence of virulence-associated proteins may result in different interactions in the human, bovine, and poultry gastrointestinal tracts, an area that requires further research.</p>
<p>Although the predominant <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky strains recovered from both dairy cows and poultry in the United States do not appear to cause considerable disease in the animal hosts, the apparent high prevalence in these food animals represents a food safety risk to consumers of beef, dairy, and poultry products. Although infrequent, human clinical salmonellosis caused by <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky has been reported in the United States, but there is not much available data on the sequence types of human-clinical <italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky in this country. The recent establishment of CIP<sup>R</sup>
<italic>S</italic>
. Kentucky ST198 in poultry in France and Poland and other regions along with the detection of this ST in dairy cows, raw milk, ground beef, and ground turkey suggests the presence of this potential emerging pathogen should be monitored in food-producing animals.</p>
