Abstract:

Xenorhabdus species are bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic Steinernema nematodes, in which they produce diverse secondary metabolites implicated in pathogenesis. To expand resources for natural product prospecting and exploration of host-symbiont-pathogen relationships, the genomes of Xenorhabdus cabanillasi, Xenorhabdus ehlersii, Xenorhabdus japonica, Xenorhabdus koppenhoeferii, and Xenorhabdus mauleonii were analyzed.
