Abstract

Bifidobacteria are one of the most important beneficial bacteria in the gut of mammals and insects. We sequenced the genome of B. actinocoloniiforme DSM 22766, which was isolated from the digestive tracts of bumblebees. The genome contains 1,548 protein-coding genes, 49 RNAs and two CRISPR repeats.
