a
The oligonucleotides designed using sequences from four non-LAB species (Staphylococcus aureus, Bifidobacterium sp. strain ISO3519, Brevibacterium linens, and Staphylococcus lentus) represent genes involved in antibiotic resistance.
b
One or more genome sequences of this species were available when the oligonucleotides were designed.
