N843_10 and N843_15 cells display morphological differences. (A) N843_15 is filamented whereas N843_10 occurs in single rods and short chains under the light microscope. (B) Electron microscopy (EM) images showing that N843_15 filamentation phenotype is due to chains of unseparated cells whilst N843_10 showed single rods and short chains typical of L. monocytogenes morphology. (C and D) Flow cytometry analysis revealed significantly increased area and cell chain length in N843_15 compared to N843_10 and the clonal control strain N12-1273 (^∗P < 0.05).
