Authors’ contributions CR conceived the typing method, coordinated the study, conducted data analysis and drafted the manuscript; SC conducted laboratory work associated with sequencing and participated in data analysis of the Campylobacter coli species; CP conceived the methodology for recovering isolates from environmental/animals samples, performed environmental sampling and revised the manuscript; HMC coordinated the sampling strategies for collecting environmental isolates and revised the manuscript; AD performed CYTH4 the statistical analyses; FD developed the PCR assays for
identifying isolates at the species level, SL isolated strains from veterinarian samples and food products at retail; JM initiated and managed the genotyping platforms for the national surveillance system, discussed analyses, interpretation and revised the manuscript critically.

“Background According to the report of FAO, due to the attack from pathogenic organisms and insect pests, 20–40% decrease in crop yield occurs which results in loss of 120 billion US $ worldwide [1]. Pest insects, being plant disease vectors reduce crop output by 10–30% either by reducing the quality and quantity of the crop production, or by serving as vectors of plant diseases [2].
