Whole-genome sequencing and metagenomics reveal diversity and prevalence of Listeria spp. from soil in the Nantahala National Forest

ABSTRACT Listeria spp. are widely distributed environmental bacteria associated with human foodborne illness. The ability to detect and characterize Listeria strains in the natural environment will contribute to improved understanding of transmission routes of contamination. The current standard for...
