Draft Genome Sequences of Six Strains of Lactococcus lactis (Phylum Firmicutes), Spanning the Seeds of Cucumis sativus L. (Cucumber), Cucumis melo L. (Cantaloupe), and Cucurbita pepo var. turbinate (Acorn Squash).

We announce the draft genome sequences of six strains of Lactococcus lactis (EKM101L, EKM102L, EKM201L, EKM203L, EKM501L, and EKM502L). These candidate plant probiotics were isolated from surface-sterilized seeds of Cucumis sativus L. (cucumber), Cucumis melo L. (cantaloupe), and Cucurbita pepo var. turbinate (acorn squash). They display beneficial activities, including biocontrol.
