Complete genome sequence of Bradyrhizobium sp. WCU1 isolated from lager beer

Key Points

The aim is to sequence and analyze the genome of a newly isolated bacterial species from beer.
Isolated Bradyrhizobium sp. WCU1 from commercially available lager beer.
Conducted genomic sequencing to determine the complete genome.
Analyzed genetic traits related to survival and metabolism.
Complete genome sequence obtained for Bradyrhizobium sp. WCU1.
Identified genes for survival at low pH and growth on maltose.
No nitrogen-fixation genes were found in the isolate.

Abstract

ABSTRACT In investigating potential flavor-altering microbiota in beer, we isolated a new bacterial species, Bradyrhizobium sp. WCU1, from a commercially available beer. We report its complete genome sequence, which includes genes for survival at low pH, growth on maltose, and for photosynthetic processes. The isolate does not contain nitrogen-fixation genes.
