Draft Genome Sequences of Three "Candidatus Symbiopectobacterium" Isolates Collected from Potato Tubers Grown in New Zealand.

The draft genome sequences of three "Candidatus Symbiopectobacterium" isolates that were collected from New Zealand-grown potato tubers represent the first report of this proposed taxon in the Southern Hemisphere. Their symbiosis with insects and nematodes and their presence on plants may lead to new strategies for pest control and crop management.
