متن کاملGenome Sequence of a Proteus mirabilis Strain Isolated from the Salivary Glands of Larval Lucilia sericata
We announce a draft genome sequence of a Proteus mirabilis strain derived from Lucilia sericata salivary glands. This strain is demonstrated to attract and induce oviposition by L. sericata, a common blow fly important to medicine, agriculture, and forensics. The genome sequence will help dissect interkingdom communication between the species.
