Complete genome sequence of Lactobacillus plantarum strain 16, a broad-spectrum antifungal-producing lactic acid bacterium

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Lactobacillus plantarum strain 16 restricts the growth of various food spoilage fungi and has the potential to be used as a biopreservative to improve the shelf life of foods. The complete genome sequence contains 3,044,678 bp with a G+C content of 44.74% and harbors the largest plasmid complement reported for this species to date.
