title: Genome sequences of the primary endosymbiont "Candidatus Portiera aleyrodidarum" in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci B and Q biotypes.
abstract: "Candidatus Portiera aleyrodidarum" is the obligate primary endosymbiotic bacterium of whiteflies, including the sweet potato whitefly Bemisia tabaci, and provides essential nutrients to its host. Here we report two complete genome sequences of this bacterium from the B and Q biotypes of B. tabaci.
