  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p> We sequenced two strains from the <jats:italic>Lactobacillus</jats:italic> Firm-5 clade, a dominant group of symbionts in the guts of honey bees and other social bees. The genome of strain wkB8, comprising a 1.93-Mb chromosome and a 6.4-kb plasmid, was fully closed, while strain wkB10 was assembled into 32 contigs. These genomes will provide insights into how gut symbionts evolve and interact with their host species. </jats:p>
