Whole-genome sequence of Enterobacter hormaechei, isolate jjbc recovered from the gut of Plutella xylostella feeding on cabbage

Mugo-Kamiri, Loretta ; Schäfer, Lea ; Wennmann, Jörg T.; Herniou, Elisabeth A.; Raymond, Ben

We present the whole-genome sequence of Enterobacter hormaechei (previously Enterobacter cloacae) obtained from long and short reads. It is a dominant gut symbiont of the notorious crop pest Plutella xylostella, highly prevalent in lepidopteran midguts and a useful model for the evolution of resistance to antimicrobials.
