Metagenome-assembled bacterial genomes recovered from the datasets of Spodoptera frugiperda (Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).

ABSTRACT

Spodoptera frugiperda (Smith) (Lepidoptera Noctuidae), also known as the fall armyworm, is an economically important and widespread polyphagous pest. Microorganisms associated to this insect during life cycle play important ecological roles. We report 3 metagenome-assembled bacterial genomes reconstructed from a metagenome dataset obtained from S. frugiperda larvae F3 3rd-instar reared using artificial diet under laboratory conditions. Genome data for Enterococcus casseliflavus indicated a genome length of 3,659,8333 bp and GC content of 42.54%. Genome data for E. mundtii indicated a genome length of 2,921,701 bp and GC content of 38.37%. Finally, genome data for Lactiplantibacillus plantarum indicated a genome length of 3,298,601 bp, GC content of 44.31%. Genome analysis allowed us to identify genus-specific protein families (PLFams), transporters and antibiotic resistance-related genes among others. DNA sequences were deposited in National Center for Biotechnology Information (https//www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) as Bioproject accession PRJNA899064.
