Genome sequencing of Serratia grimesii BXF1 using Roche 454 GS FLX Titanium (single end) and Illumina MiSeq (paired). BXF1 is an opportunistic bacterium showing non-specific transient mutualism between the plant parasitic nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus.

Genome sequencing of Serratia grimesii BXF1 using Roche 454 GS FLX Titanium (single end) and Illumina MiSeq (paired). The BXF1 strain was obtained from the Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Portuguese isolate Bx7-D, which was originally acquired from a diseased Pinus pinaster tree in Oliveira do Hospital, Coimbra (Portugal) in 2009, and further maintained under laboratory conditions (growing in B. cinerea) for several generations (Vicente et al., 2011). It shows non-specific transient mutualism with the plant parasitic nematode B. xylophilus (Nascimento et al. 2016).
