Abstract excerpt
A total of 136 strains of the genus Listeria were physiologically characterized using 329 miniaturized tests. Overall similarities of all strains were determined by numerical taxonomic techniques using the UPGMA algorithm and the SSM and SJ coefficients. A total of 10 clusters (2 or more strains) and 1 single-member cluster were defined at the 95.1 to 95.8% similarity levels (SSM). The same clusters were found at...
