Popis: Abstract Multidrug resistance (MDR) considered as global crisis facing poultry industry. Migratory birds play very important role in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistant pathogen during their fly way specially to poultry farms. Therefore, 750 samples from migratory birds and 300 samples from broiler chicken farms and its environment were collected during the winter seasons of five years (2019 to 2023). The samples were subjected to the isolation of Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli with the detection of antimicrobial resistance (phenotypic and genotypic) with insight to the genetic similarity between the isolates from migratory birds and broiler chickens’ farms. Different members of Enterobacteriaceae were isolated; Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Proteus, Providencia, Serratia, Hafnia. 298 (28.4%) of S. enterica strains belonging to 27 serovars. S. Typhimurium, S. Kentucky, S. Enteritidis and S. Shangani were the common 4 serotypes between migratory birds and farms. Meanwhile, we found 489 (46.6%) isolates of E. coli belonging to 24 serogroups and O91, O128, O26, O125, O55, O103 and O159 were the common 7serogroups between migratory birds and farms samples. The majority of Salmonella (91.6%; 274 out of 298) and E. coli (92%; 450 out of 489) were MDR. The MDRI range of Salmonella and E. coli was 0.08- 1.The genetic similarity between the isolates of migratory birds and broiler chicken farms were detected by ERICPCR and hot map. This study suggests the continuous applications of surveillance programs for migratory birds and biosecurity measures in poultry farms.
