Global transcriptomic response of Listeria monocytogenes during growth on cantaloupe slices

Understanding a pathogen's response to food environments is imperative to develop effective control strategies as well as to elucidate the impact of foods on virulence potential. The purpose of this study was to assess transcriptional response of Listeria monocytogenes after growth in cantaloupe, as well as its impact on survival in synthetic gastric fluid (SGF). The transcriptional profiles of L. monocytogenes grown in cantaloupe or Brain Heart...
