Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae B-3650 genome sequencing project. Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae B-3650

Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae. Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae causes American foulbrood disease in the honey bee, Apis mellifera. This disease is one of the major diseases of honey bee larvae, and is responsible for extensive losses in bee colonies worldwide. Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae is a spore-forming bacterium, and material contaminated by spores must be destroyed by incineration, increasing the economic losses caused by this organism. Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae B-3650. Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae B-3650 was isolated from honey bee larvae. The genome sequence of this organism will provide information on the proteins involved in pathogenesis.

幼虫芽孢杆菌幼虫亚种（Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae）可引发西方蜜蜂（Apis mellifera）的美洲幼虫腐臭病。该病害是蜜蜂幼虫的主要病害之一，可造成全球蜂群的大规模损失。幼虫芽孢杆菌幼虫亚种属于产孢细菌，受其孢子污染的物料必须通过焚烧进行销毁，这进一步加剧了该病原菌带来的经济损失。幼虫芽孢杆菌幼虫亚种B-3650（Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae B-3650）分离自蜜蜂幼虫。该菌株的基因组序列将为解析其致病相关蛋白提供重要信息。
