First Complete Genome Sequence of an Entomopathogenic Nematode Goes Public

Abstract

Entomopathogenic nematodes (Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae) have a fascinating biology as they form mutualistic symbioses with bacteria (Enterobacteriacae) and together they serve as important biological control agents of insect pests. Here we reveal the first complete genome sequence of an athogenic nematode species that will serve as a model for future genetic studies in this group and in the phylum Nematoda.
