Complete Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus plantarum Strain 16, a Broad-Spectrum Antifungal-Producing Lactic Acid Bacterium

摘要

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.
