Candidatus Endomicrobium trichonymphae phylotype Rs-D17 genomovar Ti2015. Candidatus Endomicrobiellum trichonymphae strain:genomovar Ti2015

The termites Reticulitermes speratus was collected in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. Worker termites reared with cellulose powder for three days were subjected to the experiments. The host Trichonympha agilis cell was ruptured in buffer and Rs-D17 cells which leaked out were collected with a glass capillary. These collected cells were directly subjected to isothermal whole genome amplification. After checking their purity by clone analysis of 16S rRNA gene, the complete genome sequence was determined using ABI 3730 capillary sequencers and a illumina Miseq system.
