Draft genome sequence of a potential probiotic <i>Pediococcus acidilactici</i> RTMP1 isolated from fecal samples of Speckled goats in South Africa
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of <i>Pediococcus acidilactici</i> RTMP1 isolated from fecal samples of Speckled goats. This bacterium (scaffolds = 54; genome size = 1,973,216 bp; coding sequences = 1,870; N<sub>50</sub> = 59,077; GC content = 42%) encodes for genes attributed to probiotic characteristics.
