Draft Genome Sequence of Highly Nematicidal Bacillus thuringiensis DB27

ABSTRACT Here, we report the genome sequence of nematicidal Bacillus thuringiensis DB27, which provides first insights into the genetic determinants of its pathogenicity to nematodes. The genome consists of a 5.7-Mb chromosome and seven plasmids, three of which contain genes encoding nematicidal proteins.
