Horizontal Gene Transfer and Loss of Serotype-Specific Genes in Listeria monocytogenes Can Lead to Incorrect Serotype Designations with a Commonly-Employed Molecular Serotyping Scheme

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive, facultative intracellular foodborne pathogen capable of causing severe, invasive illness (listeriosis). Three serotypes, 1/2a, 1/2b, and 4b, are leading contributors to human listeriosis, with 4b including the major hypervirulent clones. The multiplex PCR s...
