Abstract

The Lactobacillus amylovorus KSAU strain was isolated from the chyme of the intestinal cecum of an industrial pig. Genes encoding the synthesis of bacteriocins were annotated and suggest their potential to improve the preparation and production of probiotics for pigs.

Keywords: Lactobacillus amylovorus; bacteriocins; gastrointestinal tract; intestinal cecum.
