This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of antimicrobial resistant E. coli in retail poultry meats (chicken and duck) collected through the Korean national surveillance program between 2017 and 2019. This information can contribute to establishment of a containment strategy to prevent the dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant E. coli strains.
