Listeria monocytogenes | isolate:BDSA Genome sequencing
The aim of this project is to provide significant new data about the antibiotic resistance profiles, virulence factors, and genetic diversity of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Using modern bioinformatics technologies, the assembled genomes were subjected to a thorough investigation aimed at understanding the genetic variants present in this organism . The outcome will improve our knowledge of infections linked to L. monocytogenes and allow us to compare the findings for public health and food safety on a worldwide scale. This submission is in line with larger efforts to improve genomic databases, and filling the gap of data from Bangladeshi origin of L. monocytogenes and push forward the discipline of bacterial genomics.
