Genome assembly of a potential probiotic Bifidobacterium bifidum BB11 strain isolated from Holstein calves
Sydwell Langa, Tshifhiwa Paris MamphogoroABSTRACT
Here we report the genome sequence of Bifidobacterium bifidum BB11 strain, isolated from the Holstein bull calf’s rumen samples. The strain tested positive for probiotic characteristics such as bile salt tolerance, adhesion, and acid tolerance. The genome size was 2,200,000 bp with the guanine and cytosine (G+C) content of 62.5%.
