Genome Sequence of the Listeria monocytogenes Food Isolate HPB913, Collected in Canada in 1993.

Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacterium of importance to public health and food safety agencies. We present the genome sequence of the serotype 1/2a L. monocytogenes food isolate HPB913, which was collected in Canada in 1993 as part of an investigation into a sporadic case of foodborne illness.
