Despite a reduction in genome size, strain B2-EB displays a high genome completeness, suggesting a nondegenerative reduction in the B2-EB genome. The B2-EB genome (1.88 Mb) represents the smallest genome among the endofungal bacterium Mycoavidus cysteinexigens (2.64–2.80 Mb) of Mortierella elongata and the uncultured endosymbiont “ Candidatus Glomeribacter gigasporarum” (1.37 to 2.36 Mb) of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. strain B2-EB, present in the fungal host Mortierella parvispora was obtained successfully.
