Draft Genome Sequence of Pediococcus acidilactici Strain LPBC161, Isolated from Mature Coffee Cherries during Natural Fermentation.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Pediococcus acidilactici strain LPBC161, a lactic acid bacterium isolated from mature coffee cherries in Brazil. The genome sequence of P. acidilactici LPBC161 provides valuable information on the mechanisms of adaptation and metabolism of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in the environment and stressor factors of coffee processing.
