show Abstracthide AbstractPostmenopausal women are disproportionately affected by recurrent urinary tract infection (RUTI). The relationship between the urogenital microbiome and RUTI susceptibility is still largely understudied. Limosilactobacillus vaginalis is a key member of the urogenital microbiome, but its exact role in urogenital health is unknown. More complete genomes of this species are needed to study the contribution of L. vaginalis genes in RUTI prevention and pathogenesis.
