Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Acetobacter tropicalis are bacterial symbionts commonly isolated from decaying fruits and from the microbiome of Drosophila melanogaster . Studies have shown that these organisms interact synergistically, imparting beneficial effects on the host. Here, we report whole-genome sequences of these microbes obtained from long and short reads.
