Article Abstract

We isolated Burkholderia symbiont strain RPE64 from the bean bug Riptortus pedestris. Analysis of the complete 6.96-Mb genome, which consists of three chromosomes and two plasmids, will facilitate further understanding of insect-microbe symbiosis and the development of pest-control technologies.

In the last 4 years, most of the species previously classified as members of the genus Burkholderia have been transferred to the novel genera Paraburkholderia, Caballeronia, Robbsia, Mycetohabitans and Trinickia. However, there have been objections to splitting the genus Burkholderiasensu lato, and based on this taxonomic opinion, strain RPE64, which has the 16S rRNA gene sequence identical to that of Caballeronia peredens LMG 29314, has recently been proposed as the type strain of Burkholderia insecticolasp. nov.

A Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, motile bacterium, designated strain RPE64, was isolated from the gut symbiotic organ of the bean bug Riptortus pedestris, collected in Tsukuba, Japan, in 2007. 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed that this strain belongs to the Burkholderia glathei clade, exhibiting the highest sequence similarity to Burkholderia peredens LMG 29314 (100 %), Burkholderia turbans LMG 29316 (99.52 %) and Burkholderia ptereochthonis LMG 29326 (99.
