Genome Sequences for a Cluster of Human Isolates of Listeria monocytogenes Identified in South Africa in 2015

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium with a ubiquitous presence in the environment. There is growing concern about the increasing prevalence of L. monocytogenes associated with food-borne outbreaks. Here we report genome sequences for a cluster of human isolates of L. monocytogenes id...
