Clustering of Pan- and Core-genome of Lactobacillus provides Novel Evolutionary Insights for Differentiation

Abstract Background Bacterial taxonomy aims to classify bacteria based on true evolutionary events and relies on a polyphasic approach that includes phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses. Until now, complete genomes are largely ignored in taxonomy. The genus Lactobacillus consists of 173...
