Abstract

We announce the draft genome sequences of 12 Bacteroides, 4 Phocaeicola, and 2 Parabacteroides strains, among which was a newly isolated species, Bacteroidaceae bacterium UO.H1004. These isolates produce health-benefiting short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in various concentrations.
