Virulence profiles across the phylogeny of the L. monocytogenes isolates. (Left) Phylogenetic tree of all isolates determined by 59 virulent and virulence-related genes, part of genes belong. The phylogenic relationship among different STs is shown by the phylogenic tree. (Right) Pattern of gene presence (colored line) or absence (white). The presence/absence gene matrix represents, from left to right, genes located in the pathogenicity islands LIPI-1 (prfA, plcA, hly, mpl, actA, and plcB), LIPI-3 (llsAGHXBYDP) and LIPI-4 (02325, 02324, 02326, 02328, and 02329), genes coding for internalins (inlABCFHJKL) and other genes involved in adherence (ami, dltA, fbpA, lap, and lapB), invasion (aut, lpeA, and vip), intracellular survival (hpt, lplA1, oppA, prsA2, purQ, and svpA), regulation of transcription and translation (agrA, fur, lisR, lisK, sbV, sigB, stp, virR, and hfq), small non-coding RNA (lhrC, Rli55, and Rli6), cell wall synthesize (chiA, iap, dal, gtcA, and murA).
