Distribution of bacteriocin genes in the lineages of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum
Abstract Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, previously named “Lactobacillus plantarum,” is found in a wide variety of environments exhibiting a high level of intraspecies genetic diversity. To investigate the strain diversity, we performed comparative genomic analyses of the 54 complete genome sequences...
