Draft genome sequence of the obligate bacterial endosymbiont <i>Buchnera aphidicola</i> of the aphid <i>Uroleucon formosanum</i>
The genome of the obligate bacterial endosymbiont <i>Buchnera aphidicola</i> from the aphid <i>Uroleucon formosanum</i> was sequenced and assembled using Illumina paired-end sequencing. Genomic functional analysis revealed that <i>B. aphidicola</i> can assist its host in counteracting oxidative stress induced by plant-derived sesquiterpene lactones.
