Compatibility of WGS data from Illumina and Ion Torrent technology in genome comparison analysis of Listeria monocytogenes
Genome comparison analysis can reveal transmission routes that cannot be found with classic epidemiology. Widespread standard for use in genome comparison analysis is data from short read sequencing, generated on Illumina or Ion Torrent devices. This study analyses the impact of the sequencing technology on downstream analyses like e.g. outbreak investigations.
