Genetic relationship between Escherichia coli strains expressing different or the same fimbrial/toxic virulence markers and isolated from piglets affected with neonatal diarrhoea were determined using the pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) method after XbaI endonuclease digestion of chromosomal DNA. The strains were classified as enterotoxigenic (ETEC), shigatoxigenic (STEC) and enteroaggregative (EAEC) groups of E. coli according to their virulence properties. After PFGE, the dendrograms were created from a matrix of band matching using the Dice coefficient and the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean analysis. The genetic analysis of all isolates tested revealed that bacteria possessing the same virulenceassociated factors can be classified as different clonal groups. On the other hand, two pairs of EAEC isolates with different virulence properties generated identical PFGE profiles. The obtained results show preliminary epidemiological information about the molecular relationship between diverse E. coli strains originated from suckling piglets with diarrhoea.
