Draft Genome Sequences of Two Strains of Enterococcus lactis Showing High Potential as Cattle Probiotic Supplements.

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.

Draft De Novo Genome Assembly of Acinetobacter pittii Strain VKPM B-3780, a Prospective Multifunctional Bioremediation Agent.

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.
