Comparison of Widely Used <named-content content-type="genus-species">Listeria monocytogenes</named-content> Strains EGD, 10403S, and EGD-e Highlights Genomic Differences Underlying Variations in Pathogenicity

ABSTRACT For nearly 3 decades, listeriologists and immunologists have used mainly three strains of the same serovar (1/2a) to analyze the virulence of the bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. The genomes of two of these strains, EGD-e and 10403S, were released in 2001 and 2008, respectively. H...
