Draft Genome Sequences of Three Novel Low-Abundance Species Strains Isolated from Kefir Grain

ABSTRACT We report here the genome sequences of three novel bacterial species strains— Bacillus kefirresidentii Opo, Rothia kefirresidentii KRP, and Streptococcus kefirresidentii YK—isolated from kefir grains collected in Germany. The draft genomes of these isolates were remarkably dissimilar (average nucleotide identities, 77.80%, 89.01%, and 92.10%, respectively) to those of the previously sequenced strains.
