Draft Genome Sequences of Fructobacillus fructosus DPC 7238 and Leuconostoc mesenteroides DPC 7261, Mannitol-Producing Organisms Isolated from Fructose-Rich Honeybee-Resident Flowers on an Irish Farm.

ABSTRACT: Certain bacterial species, including some fructophilic lactic acid bacteria, are known to naturally produce the sugar alcohol mannitol. Here, we announce the draft genome sequences of the mannitol-producing organisms Fructobacillus fructosus DPC 7238 and Leuconostoc mesenteroides DPC 7261, which were isolated from fructose-rich honeybee-resident flowers found on an Irish farm.
