Draft Genome Sequences for Five Photorhabdus Bacterial Symbionts of Entomopathogenic Heterorhabditis Nematodes Isolated from India.

ABSTRACT: Photorhabdus bacteria exhibit contrasting lifestyles; they are virulent insect pathogens but symbionts of the entomopathogenic Heterorhabditis nematodes. Photorhabdus genomes encode several secondary metabolites and insecticidal protein toxins. Here, we present the draft genome sequences for five Photorhabdus strains isolated from Heterorhabditis nematodes collected from various geographical regions of India.
