(a) Representative ERIC-PCR profiles for E. coli isolates. Lanes 1, 10, 20: 100 bp DNA ladder, lanes 2–4: EC1-EC3; lanes 5–9: EC17, EC19, EC18, EC30, EC34, lanes 11–18: EC32, EC14, EC41, EC39, EC42, EC22, EC45, EC46; lane 19: negative control. (b) Representative RAPD profiles for E. coli isolates. Lanes 1, 21: 1 kb DNA ladder; lane 2, 20: 100 bp DNA ladder; lanes 3–18: EC5, EC8, EC13, EC15, EC7, EC44, EC12, EC24, EC25, EC29, EC35, EC40, EC26, EC43, EC46, EC47; lane 19: negative control. (c) Representative REP-PCR profiles for E. coli isolates. Lane 1, 21: 1 kb DNA ladder; lane 2, 20: 100 bp DNA ladder; lanes 3–18: EC5, EC8, EC13, EC15, EC7, EC44, EC12, EC24, EC25, EC29, EC35, EC26, EC40, EC43, EC46, EC47; lane 19: negative control.
