# Draft genome sequences of six Rothia mucilaginosa strains assembled from the human oral microbiome

## TL;DR

This paper presents draft genome sequences of six Rothia mucilaginosa strains from the human oral microbiome.

## Contribution

The study provides high-quality draft genomes of six distinct R. mucilaginosa strains using a species-specific mapping approach.

## Key findings

- Six R. mucilaginosa MAGs were assembled with ≥95.85% average nucleotide identity to the reference genome.
- Contamination levels in the MAGs were ≤3.75%, indicating high quality.
- The genomes were recovered from distinct human subjects, highlighting oral microbiome diversity.

## Abstract

We report draft metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of six Rothia mucilaginosa strains recovered from the oral microbiome of distinct human subjects. MAGs were retrieved according to a species-specific genome mapping approach, displaying high average nucleotide identities (≥95.85%) to R. mucilaginosa ATCC 25296’s genome and minimal contamination levels (≤3.75%).
