Genomic analysis of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and its symbiont in Southwestern China highlights their potential in biological control.
Heterorhabditis nematodes have been widely exploited as effective biological control agents. Their pathogenicity largely relies on their bacterial symbionts. Here we present the genome assemblies and annotations of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and its symbiotic bacterium Photorhabdus laumondii , isolated from Yunnan, China, along with comparative genomic analyses against the type strain TT01 from Australia.
