Abstract

Infrared spectra of type cultures of the six recognized species of the genus Listeria and of Listeria grayi subsp. murrayi were recorded. By use of a library of 59 spectra, comprising at least six replicates of each type, discrimination by canonical variate analysis of the spectral amplitudes allowed all of the spectra to be correctly classified.
