Abstract

There is frequent evidence that Limosilactobacillus vaginalis colonizes female genitourinary tracts but few reports of Limosilactobacillus portuensis. Their role in urinary tract infection (UTI) is unclear. We present the first complete genome of L. portuensis and a complete genome of L. vaginalis isolated from postmenopausal women with varying UTI histories.
