Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of S. thermophilus ACA-DC 2 relative to other Streptococcus species. The tree was constructed based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. GenBank accession numbers are presented in parentheses and type strains are indicated with a superscript T (type strains = T). Strains with complete genome sequence are marked with an asterisk. 16S rRNA gene sequences were aligned using MUSCLE [55]. The phylogenetic tree was built by the Maximum Likelihood method within MEGA7 software [56] using the Tamura-Nei substitution model [57]. Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis NCDO 604T served as the outgroup. Bootstrap values derived after 1,000 replicates. The scale bar indicates an estimated 0.01 nucleotide change per nucleotide position
