Genome-level comparisons provide insight into the phylogeny and metabolic diversity of species within the genus Lactococcus

Abstract Background The genomic diversity of different species within the genus Lactococcus and the relationships between genomic differentiation and environmental factors remain unclear. In this study, type isolates of ten Lactococcus species/subspecies were sequenced to assess their genomic charac...
