© 2020 Listeria monocytogenes is an important foodborne pathogen in human and veterinary health, causing significant morbidity and mortality including abortion. It has a particular tropism for the gravid uterus, however, the route of infection in rep...

Journal Article
Shaw, L. M., Blanchard, A., Chen, Q., An, X., Davies, P., Totemeyer, S., …Stekel, D. J. (2019). DirtyGenes: testing for significant changes in gene or bacterial population compositions from a small number of samples. Scientific Reports, 9, Article 2373. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-38873-4

High throughput genomics technologies are applied widely to microbiomes in humans, animals, soil and water, to detect changes in bacterial communities or the genes they carry, between different environments or treatments. We describe a method to test... Read More about DirtyGenes: testing for significant changes in gene or bacterial population compositions from a small number of samples.
