Xenorhabdus bovienii strain CS03
We report the 4,8 Mb genome sequences of Xenorhabdus bovienii strain CS03 (a 4,6 Mb-chromosome, a 180 kb megaplasmid and a 8 kb plasmid). It is a Gram-negative bacterium, symbiont of the entomopathogenic nematode of the species Steinernema weiseri. By direct injection into insect haemolymph, the strain presents attenuated pathogenic behaviour.
