The <i>mutL</i> Gene as a Genome-Wide Taxonomic Marker for High Resolution Discrimination of <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> and Its Closely Related Taxa

The <i>mutL</i> Gene as a Genome-Wide Taxonomic Marker for High Resolution Discrimination of <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> and Its Closely Related Taxa

The current taxonomy of the <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> group comprises of 17 closely related species that are indistinguishable from each other by using commonly used 16S rRNA gene sequencing. In this study, a whole-genome-based analysis was carried out for exploring the highly...
