Genome sequencing and assembly of Lm208 Listeria monocytogenes strain
Listeria monocytogenes is a psychrotrophic food-borne pathogen mostly associated with consumption of ready-to eat foods. This strain demonstrated specific overgrowth capabilities in presence of exogenous unsaturated fatty acids at low temperature (Touche et al., 2023).Touche, C., Hamchaoui, S., Quillere, A., Darsonval, M., and Dubois-Brissonnet, F. (2023). Growth of Listeria monocytogenes is promoted at low temperature when exogenous unsaturated fatty acids are incorporated in its membrane. Food Microbiol., 110, 104170.
