Genomics of Listeria monocytogenes and Other Members of the Genus Listeria 11. Bacillus cereus 12. Bacillus anthracis 13. Clostridium botulinum 14. Clostridium perfringens 15. Mycobacterium avium Subspecies paratuberculosis 16. Foodborne Noroviruses 17. Hepatitis A and E Viruses 18. Genomics of Aspergillus flavus Mycotoxin Production 19. Cryptosporidium Species 20. Giardia lamblia: Molecular Studies of an Early Branching Eukaryote 21. Cyclospora cayetanensis: a Review of the Genome 22. Impact of the Toxoplasma gondii Genome Project 23. Genomic and Postgenomic Approaches to Understanding the Pathogenesis of the Enteric Protozoan Parasite Entamoeba histolytica.
Summary: In this work, the authors review genome sequencing initiatives, explaining how they continue to build our understanding of the ecology, adaptation, and evolution of individual pathogens. They explain how pathogen genomics has the potential to ensure the safety of global food and water supplies. This is recommended for microbiology and genomics researchers, public health officials, regulators, food scientists, and other professionals protecting food and water supplies from dangerous pathogens.
