Abstract

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have a vast genetic potential and are used in food production. The aims of this work were to identify forty-six 16S ribosomal gene sequences of LAB isolated from goat’s raw milk cheeses and to evaluate the phylogenetic relationship between the sequences. Using Sanger sequencing and the BLAST algorithm, the species were identified. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using the R 4.3.0 software, and the genetic distance was calculated using the MEGA 11 software. The phylogenetic tree revealed variability between sequences of the same species, which may have implications for the technological capabilities of LAB sought for the production of cheeses of standardized quality.
