ABSTRACT

There is frequent evidence that Limosilactobacillus vaginalis colonizes female genitourinary tracts but few reports of Limosilactobacillus portuensis . Their role in urinary tract infection (UTI) is unclear. We present the first complete genome of L. portuensis and a complete genome of L. vaginalis isolated from postmenopausal women with varying UTI histories.
