Comprehensive metagenomic analysis of stress-resistant and -sensitive Listeria monocytogenes.
Article in Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacterium which can live in adverse environments (low pH, high salinity, and low temperature). Even though there are various whole genome sequencing (WGS) data on L. monocytogenes, investigations on genetic differences between stress-resistant and -sensitive L. monocytogenes grown under stress environments have been not fully examined. This study aims to investigate and compare genetic characteristics between stress-resistant and -sensitive L. monocytogenes using whole genome sequencing (WGS). A total of 47 L. monocytogenes strains (43 stress-resistant and 4 stress-sensitive) were selected based on the stress-resistance tests under pH 3, 5% salt concentration, and 1 °C. The sequencing library for WGS was prepared and sequenced using an Illumina MiSeq. Genetic characteristics of two different L. monocytogenes groups were examined to analyze the pangenome, functionality, virulence, antibiotic resistance, core, and unique genes. The functionality of unique genes in the stress-resistant L. monocytogenes was distinct compared to the stress-sensitive L. monocytogenes, such as carbohydrate and nucleotide transport and metabolism. The lisR virulence gene was detected more in the stress-resistant L. monocytogenes than in the stress-sensitive group. Five stress-resistant L. monocytogenes strains possessed tet(M) antibiotic resistance gene. This is the first study suggesting that deep genomic characteristics of L. monocytogenes may have different resistance level under stress conditions. This new insight will aid in understanding the genetic relationship between stress-resistant and -sensitive L. monocytogenes strains isolated from diverse resources. KEY POINTS: • Whole genomes of L. monocytogenes isolated from three different sources were analyzed. • Differences in two L. monocytogenes groups were identified in functionality, virulence, and antibiotic resistance genes. • This study first examines the association between resistances and whole genomes of stress-resistant and -sensitive L. monocytogenes.
