Priestia megaterium MWU16-30321 was isolated from a mixed bacterial culture in a cranberry stem gall in Massachusetts following a severe winter. The genome is 5,623,390 bp in size and putatively encodes indole-3-acetic acid acetyltransferase, a key enzyme in tryptophan-dependent indole-3-acetic acid production.

Chromobacterium sp. strain IRSSSOUMB001 with potent insecticidal activity was isolated from Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Burkina Faso. The draft genome is 5,090,822 bp and encodes predicted genes for hydrogen cyanide production, haemolysin, a T3SS, and yopE , which are potential virulence factors against mosquitoes.
