Abstract

ABSTRACT “ Candidatus Hepatoplasma crinochetorum” Ps is an extracellular symbiont residing in the hepatopancreas of the terrestrial isopod Porcellio scaber . Its genome is highly similar to that of the close relative “ Ca. Hepatoplasma crinochetorum” Av from Armadillidium vulgare . However, instead of a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-Cas system, it encodes a type I restriction modification system.
