Genome Announc. 2016 Sep 22;4(5):e01025-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01025-16.

Abstract

It is well recognized that Streptococcus macedonicus can populate artisanal fermented foods, especially those of dairy origin. However, the safety of S. macedonicus remains to be established. Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of strain 679, which was isolated from a French uncooked semihard cheese made with cow milk.
