A core genome MLST scheme was developed for Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) subspecies M. abscessus, M. bolletii and M. massiliense, using chewBBACA version 2.8.5…
Genomic Characterization of Clinical Listeria monocytogenes Isolates in Beijing, China
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne human pathogen that affects public health worldwide. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can classify L. monocytogenes isolates and identify virulence islands and resistance genes potentially influencing infectivity. Herein, WGS was used to assess 151 L. monocytogenes isolates from 120 cases of clinical infection in Beijing, China, between…
