ABSTRACT
Probiotic supplements are currently widely used in cattle feeding practices. However, knowledge regarding the genomic landscape of cattle probiotic microorganisms is relatively scarce and is based on analogies with human probiotics. Here, we report on the draft genome sequences of two Enterococcus lactis strains, VKPM B-4989 and VKPM B-4992, which were isolated from the rumen of a healthy calf and utilized as a probiotic additive.
ABSTRACT
Acinetobacter pittii strain VKPM B-3780 is a prospective degrader of oil and methanol, isolated from industrial wastewater. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of strain VKPM B-3780, obtained using Illumina sequencing of the fragment genomic library.
ABSTRACT
The draft genome sequence of Rhodococcus erythropolis VKPM Ac-1659, a putative oil-degrading strain, is reported. This genome sequence may provide better insights into the diversity and evolution of the genes responsible for hydrocarbon degradation in soil microorganisms.
ABSTRACT
The ability of purple nonsulfur bacteria Rhodobacter capsulatus B10 to synthesize bacteriochlorophyll under phototrophic and dark conditions was studied. The modes for cultivation in the dark with oxygen limitation in a continuous culture at D = 0.1 h(-1) were selected. The yield of biomass reached 20 g/l; the bacteriochlorophyll a output of the process amounted to 16.6 mg/l h(-1).
