Draft Genome of a Member of the Family Chromobacteriaceae Isolated from Anopheles Mosquitoes in West Africa

Abstract

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.
