Draft Genome Sequences of Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus delbrueckii Strains from African Fermented Nono

Abstract

The genomes of predominant Lactobacillus helveticus , Lactobacillus fermentum , and Lactobacillus delbrueckii strains from fermented nono were sequenced. The genome sizes were 2.1, 1.9, and 1.7 Mbp, respectively, and the GC contents were 36.5%, 51.5%, and 49.7%, respectively. Annotation revealed some genes for bacteriocin and for the potential production of aroma compounds.
