Human consumption of contaminated meat, especially poultry, has been identified as a possible route of transmission. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the antimicrobial resistance profiles and virulence genes of enterococci isolated from Portuguese conventional and free-range broiler farms.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Antibiotic susceptibility testing showed high frequencies of resistance to tetracycline in both farming systems. Resistance to erythromycin and gentamicin were detected in about half of the isolates. Resistance to penicillin was the less frequently observed and no vancomycin resistant isolates were identified. The majority of the enterococcal isolates, from either farming systems, were resistant to more than one antibiotic, and no statistical associations were found, except for penicillin resistance which associated with the genetic clusters. No differences were found between farming systems regarding the prevalence of <jats:italic>tet<\/jats:italic>(M), <jats:italic>erm<\/jats:italic>(B), <jats:italic>aac (6\u2032)-Ie-aph (2\u2033)-Ia<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>pbp5<\/jats:italic> genes, nevertheless <jats:italic>pbp5<\/jats:italic> prevalence was associated with the different genetic clusters. Hemolytic activity was identified in 26.47% of all isolates and gelatinase activity in 50%. The <jats:italic>gel<\/jats:italic>E gene was identified in the majority of the isolates, whereas <jats:italic>esp<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>agg<\/jats:italic> genes were rarely detected.
