Dahi is a traditional Indian fermented milk consumed regularly as part of the diet because of its palatability and health benefits. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a unique strain of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, W8, a lactic acid bacterium that produces nisin while fermenting milk to dahi.
