Draft genome sequences of 53 Lactococcus and Leuconostoc strains isolated from two undefined DL-starter cultures.

This study presents the complete genomes of 53 strains of Lactococcus and Leuconostoc isolated from two undefined DL-starter cultures originating from Denmark, Tistrup, and P. The genomes were reconstructed using long-read, nanopore-based DNA sequencing, delivering comprehensive data set for comparative genomics and taxonomic classification, with potential utility in dairy fermentation processes.
