The foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes is the causative agent of human listeriosis,
a severe disease, especially dangerous for the elderly, pregnant women, and newborns …

Bacteria often encounter temperature fluctuations in their natural habitats and must adapt to
survive. The molecular response of bacteria to sudden temperature upshift or downshift is …

Adaptive stress tolerance responses are the driving force behind the survival ability of
Listeria monocytogenes in different environmental niches, within foods, and ultimately, the …

Food fermentation is driven by microorganisms, which usually coexist as multispecies
biofilms. The activities and interactions of functional microorganisms and pathogenic …

Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen responsible for the well-
known listeriosis disease. This bacterium has become a common contaminant of food …

Listeria monocytogenes is a public health and food safety challenge due to its virulence and
natural stress resistance phenotypes. The variable distribution of L. monocytogenes …

Bacteria are constantly subjected to stressful conditions, such as antibiotic exposure,
nutrient limitation and oxidative stress. For pathogenic bacteria, adapting to the host …

Listeria monocytogenes adapts to low-temperature environments and grows rapidly at room
temperature. This bacterium is associated with several foodborne outbreaks due to cold …

Plants and animals detect biomolecules termed microbe-associated molecular patterns
(MAMPs) and induce immunity. Agricultural production is severely impacted by pathogens …

Listeria monocytogenes has evolved an extensive array of mechanisms for coping with
stress and adapting to changing environmental conditions, ensuring its virulence phenotype …
