This paper reports the draft genome sequence of sp. BUB8, an oleaginous yeast isolated from the forest canopy of Mt. Makiling Forest Reserve in the Philippines.

Draft genome sequence of 3G3 isolated from Philippine fermented pork.

is a well-studied fermentative bacterium reported to have potential probiotic properties. Here, we report the draft genome of 3G3 previously isolated from , a Philippine fermented pork dish. The 3G3 draft genome has 1,886,498 bp, a GC content of 42.

Draft genome sequence of BS25 isolated from a local fermented rice-shrimp mixture from the Philippines.

The draft genome sequence of BS25, previously isolated from a fermented rice-shrimp mixture () in the Philippines, was analyzed. The genome contains 3,264,139 bp (44.62% GC%), and a total of 3,069 predicted coding sequences, 2 rRNAs, and 52 tRNAs.

Spectrum of bacteriocin activity of Lactobacillus plantarum BS and fingerprinting by RAPD-PCR.

The spectrum of antimicrobial activity of Lactobacillus plantarum BS against representative bacterial species was established through deferred assay and 'spot-on-lawn' assay using actively growing cells and partially purified bacteriocin extract, respectively. Only lactobacilli, pediococci, enterococci, bacilli and Listeria were inhibited from the test microorganisms. Slight bacteriocinogenic activity through 'spot-on-lawn' assay was detected against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli O157:H7.
