Comparative genomics of S. thermophilus strains. a Whole genome phylogeny of S. thermophilus strains with complete available genome sequences. The phylogenetic tree was calculated in EDGAR and it is presented as a cladogram ignoring branch length. The strains S. salivarius NCTC 8616 and Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris MG1363 were used as outgroups. Colored boxes indicate the three distinct S. thermophilus branches identified. Strains in each colored branch designated in bold were used for further comparative analysis. b Whole genome alignments of S. thermophilus strains KLDS 3.1003, JIM 8232 and ACA-DC 2 using Circoletto. Red and blue ribbons correspond to regions of >98% and 80–98% identity, respectively. White regions correspond to strain specific loci. c Venn diagram analysis of S. thermophilus strains KLDS 3.1003, JIM 8232 and ACA-DC 2, as implemented in EDGAR
