Genome sequence of Lactobacillus salivarius NIAS840, isolated from chicken intestine

J Bacteriol. 2011 Oct;193(19):5551-2. doi: 10.1128/JB.05688-11.

Abstract

Lactobacillus salivarius is a well-known lactic acid bacterium to which increasing attention has been paid recently for use as probiotics for humans and animals. L. salivarius NIAS840 was first isolated from broiler chicken feces, displaying antimicrobial activities against multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Here, we report the genome sequence of L. salivarius NIAS840 (2,046,557 bp) including a small plasmid and two megaplasmids.
