Comparative Genomics Analysis of Habitat Adaptation by Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens.

ABSTRACT: Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens is often found in fermented dairy products. Many strains of this species have probiotic properties, contributing to the regulation of immune metabolism and intestinal flora. This species was added to the list of lactic acid bacteria that can be added to food in China, in 2020. However, research on the genomics of this species is scarce. In this study we undertook whole genome sequencing analysis of 82 strains of L. kefiranofaciens from different habitats, of which 9 strains were downloaded from the NCBI RefSeq (National Center for Biotechnology Information RefSeq). The mean genome size of the 82 strains was 2.05 ± 0.25 Mbp, and the mean DNA G + C content was 37.47 ± 0.42%. The phylogenetic evolutionary tree for the core genes showed that all stra
