Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen of global concern due to the high mortality rate among immunocompromised patients. Whole-genome sequences of 12 strains of L. monocytogenes from humans were reported. The availability of these genomes should provide useful information on the evolutionary history and genetic diversity of L. monocytogenes.
单核细胞增生李斯特菌是一种引起全球关注的食源性病原体,因为它在免疫功能低下的患者中死亡率很高。已报道了12株来自人类的单核细胞增生李斯特菌的全基因组序列。这些基因组的可得性应为了解单核细胞增生李斯特菌的进化历史和遗传多样性提供有用信息。
