Complete genome sequence of the animal pathogen Listeria ivanovii, which provides insights into host specificities and evolution of the genus Listeria

J Bacteriol. 2011 Dec;193(23):6787-8. doi: 10.1128/JB.06120-11.

Abstract

We report the complete and annotated genome sequence of the animal pathogen Listeria ivanovii subsp. ivanovii strain PAM 55 (serotype 5), isolated in 1997 in Spain from an outbreak of abortion in sheep. The sequence and its analysis are available at an interactive genome browser at the Institut Pasteur (http://genolist.pasteur.fr/LivaList/).
