Lactococcus petauri strain:LG26 | isolate:LG26 Genome sequencing. Lactococcus petauri strain:LG26 | isolate:LG26

We identified the isolates as members of the Lactococcus garvieae/petauri group using marker genes and genome comparison. Isolates were characterised biochemically and the impact of environmental conditions such as carbon and peptone source and pH was determined. We suggest here that isolates of L. garvieae/petauri produce the orange pigment granadeane, which might add to the pathogenesis of these strains and their potential transmission from feed insect to mammalian gut microbiota.
