Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes plasmids that were newly identified in whole-genome sequences of listeriosis outbreak isolates
Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium that is found ubiquitously throughout nature and is the etiologic agent of listeriosis. The majority of human listeriosis is foodborne, resulting from the consumption of unpasteurized and ready-to-eat foods that are contaminated during food process...
