Total refers to the total sequence length of the entire group and Average ± SD to average percentage of the sequences in each strain of the group ± standard deviation. Group J represent the representative genome that shared the largest core genome with the strains within group I. Group K represent Group H plus the representative genomes of all Weissella species deposited to NCBI.
