Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus CRL871 is the first strain of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus reported as a folateproducingstrain. We report the draft genome sequence of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus CRL871 (2,063,981 bp, GC contentof 49.1%). This strain is of great biotechnological importance to the dairy industry because it constitutes an alternative to folicacid fortification
