Draft genome sequence and annotation of the insect pathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus nematophila strain C2-3, isolated from nematode Steinernema carpocapsae in the Republic of Korea

Abstract

Xenorhabdus nematophila strain C2-3, which belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae, was isolated from entomopathogenic nematodes collected in the Republic of Korea. Herein, we report a 4.38-Mbp draft genome sequence of X. nematophila strain C2-3, with a 43.6% G+C content. The RAST annotation analysis revealed 4,994 protein-coding sequences in the draft genome.
