Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Lactococcus lactis is a crucial lactic acid bacterium of great economically significance for cheese product. The species exhibits wildly distribution and significant genetic diversity, yet the underlying drivers of its differentiation remain elusive. OBJECTIVES: Lactococcus lactis, exhibits complex genetic diversity, yet the mechanisms driving its differentiation and niche adaptation remain poorly...
