Draft Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus kefiri SGL 13, a Potential Probiotic Strain Isolated from Kefir Grains.

In this report, we present the draft genome sequence of a newly discovered potential probiotic strain of Lactobacillus kefiri, SGL 13, isolated from kefir grains. Antibiotic resistance analysis did not reveal evidence of interspecific horizontal gene transfer since the identified bacitracin resistance gene does not have mobile genetic elements.

Draft Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus salivarius SGL 03, a Novel Potential Probiotic Strain.

In this work, we report the draft genome sequence of Lactobacillus salivarius SGL 03, a novel potential probiotic strain isolated from healthy infant stools. Antibiotic resistance analysis revealed the presence of a tetracycline resistance gene without elements potentially responsible for interspecific horizontal gene transfer.
