Draft Whole-Genome Sequences of Seven Listeria monocytogenes Strains with Variations in Virulence and Stress Responses.

ABSTRACT: Listeria monocytogenes is an important foodborne pathogen that causes listeriosis. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of seven L. monocytogenes strains isolated from food, environmental, and clinical sources. Sequence differences at the genome level may help in understanding why these strains displayed different virulence and stress response characteristics.
