Genomes of the entomopathogenic nematode <i>Steinernema hermaphroditum</i> and its associated bacteria

2025-01-12

Abstract excerpt

As an entomopathogenic nematode (EPN), Steinernema hermaphroditum parasitizes insect hosts and harbors symbiotic Xenorhabdus griffinae bacteria. In contrast to other Steinernematids, S. hermaphroditum has hermaphroditic genetics, offering the experimental scope found in Caenorhabditis elegans . To enable biological analysis of S. hermaphroditum , we have assembled and analyzed its reference genome. This genom...
