The fate of Listeria monocytogenes on green leafy vegetables: broad-leaved endive, curly-leaved endive (Cichorium endivia L.), butterhead lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and lamb's lettuce (Valerianella locusta L. Laterr.) was studied. Populations of L. monocytogenes increased by 1.5 log in 7 d at 10 o C on broad-leaved endives and butterhead lettuce, by 0.5 log on curly-leaved endives and decreased by 1 log on lamb's lettuce. Growth patterns of the epiphytic microflora were similar among the four salad types
