Draft genome sequences of Pantoea sp. strains QMID1-QMID4 isolated from the midgut of Japanese honey bee (Apis cerana japonica).

ABSTRACT: We report the draft genome sequences of Pantoea sp. strains QMID1-QMID4 that were recovered from the midgut of Japanese honey bee (Apis cerana japonica). The strains possess the carotenoid biosynthetic gene cluster. The genome information expands our knowledge of their potential use as probiotics and/or prebiotics in honey bees.
