33
Genome sequencing and annotation. P. angustipennis individuals were collected on Mt.
34
Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan, in January 2010. Four adult females and final-instar larvae
35
were used for DNA preparations as previously described, omitting the pulse-field gel
36
electrophoresis step (1). 128,725 reads from two 454 GS Junior runs were assembled
37
into 29 contigs (N50, 89 Kb) with Newbler, ver. 2.6 (2) using default settings. Of these,
38
19 were successfully mapped onto the genome of Blattabacterum sp. strain Bge using
39
Projector 2 (3). For preparation of DNA library used for Illumina, a total DNA was
40
extracted from the fat body dissected from a single female larva using Isoplant II
41
(Nippon Gene, Tokyo) followed by further purification with columns in DNeasy Plant Mini
42
Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). 61.3 M reads were obtained from a 100 bp paired-end
43
library using an Illumina HiSeq2000. Illumina reads that could be matched with one of
44
the 19 contigs from 454 (574,354 reads) were then successfully assembled into a linear
45
632 kbp sequence using Newbler, ver. 2.7. A single gap consisting of sequence repeats
46
was closed by PCR and Sanger sequencing. Annotation was performed using the
47
Microbial Genome Annotation Pipeline in DDBJ and manually compared with other
48
strains of Blattabacterium. 16S rRNA was also detected by manual comparison with
49
genomes of other Blattabacterium strains, and some genes were detected using
50
BLASTN nr, Rfam (4), and BRUCE (5). The genome has been deposited in
51
DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under accession number AP012548.
52
Phylogenetic analysis. Protein sequences for EngA, RpsE, GidA, ValS, FusA, Tuf, GyrA,
53
MutS, InfB, RpoC, RpoB, RplB, and RplK were obtained for 43
54
Bacteroidales/Flavobacteriales species and individually aligned using MAFFT
55
(v.6.624b), employing the 'linsi' algorithm (6). Columns containing gapped characters
56
were removed with a custom Perl script and alignments for each species were
57
concatenated, resulting in a total of 7,104 characters/species. RAxML (7) was used to
58
perform a maximum-likelihood phylogenetic reconstruction (JTT+I+GAMMA) with 100
59
bootstrapping replicates via the CIPRES Science Gateway (8). A phylogenetic analysis
60
was also performed for host taxa, based on 18S rDNA sequences retrieved from
61
GenBank (Periplaneta americana: AF220572; Cryptocercus punctulatus: AF220571;
62
Mastotermes darwiniensis: AF220568; Blatella germanica: AF220573; Blaberus
63
giganteus: EF363234; Panesthia angustipennis spadica: AB036190). Outgroups for this
64
analysis were the phasmid Agathamera crassa (Z97561) and the orthopteran Tettigonia
65
viridissima (Z97587). Alignment was based on secondary structure, as previously
66
described (9). Modelgenerator was used to select an appropriate model of sequence
67
evolution based on the Bayesian information criterion. Phylogenetic analysis was
68
performed using MrBayes 3.2.1 (10). In the Bayesian phylogenetic analysis, posterior
69
distributions of parameters, including the tree topology and branch lengths, were
70
estimated using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. Samples from the
71
posterior distribution were drawn every 1000 MCMC steps over a total of 10,000,000
72
steps. The analysis was run using four chains, comprising one cold chain and three
73
heated chains. The first 10% of samples were discarded as burn-in. Acceptable mixing
74
and convergence to the stationary distribution were checked by inspection of samples
75
from the posterior and by calculating the standard deviation of split frequencies among
76
the tree topologies.

Supplementary Results and Discussion
79
The GC content BPAA is 26.41%, and coding sequence density is 94%, with 575 protein
80
coding and 40 RNA-coding genes. The latter includes 34 tRNAs for transfer of all amino
81
acids, tmRNA, a signal recognition particle RNA, RNase P, and an operon containing
82
16S, 5S, and 23S. Figure S1 shows the inferred metabolic reconstruction of
83
Blattabacterium strain BPAA based on genome data. Most genes essential for DNA
84
replication as well as mRNA transcription and translation are present. Intracellular
85
bacterial symbionts are dependent upon the major sigma factor RpoD for transcription,
86
but they usually lack alternative sigma factors. BPAA, like other Blattabacterium strains,
87
was found to encode the sigma factor RpoN, a transcriptional regulator of genes
88
involved in nitrogen assimilation that is enhancer-activated. BPAA contains gene
89
complements for the production of outer membrane and cell-wall components. It is
90
inferred to generate carbon precursors and ATP respectively using gluconeogenesis
91
and aerobic biosynthesis.
92
93
A key difference between BPAA and all other Blattabacterium genomes is the absence
94
of any plasmid in the former. The three plasmid-based genes were present as a cluster
95
in the BPAA chromosome. We confirmed this apparent integration by PCR and Sanger
96
sequencing. BPAA has only two genes that are not found in any other Blattabacterium
97
genome, both of which encode hypothetical proteins (BPAA_093 and BPAA_129). A
98
total 9 genes in BPAA (nadD, mvaK, miaA, topA, murD, menC, rplR, rnpA, comEB)
99
contain single nucleotide insertions that alter the downstream reading frame. It is
100
possible that these genes no longer encode intact proteins; however, the mechanism of
101
transcriptional slippage within homopolymeric regions may correct the reading frame in
102
a subpopulation of transcripts that can be translated into functional enzymes (11).
103
Phylogenetic analysis showed that BPAA is most closely related to strain BGIGA.
104
The Blattabacterium clade was found to be a sister group to a clade containing strains of
105
the endosymbiont Sulcia muelleri. Phylogenetic relationships of Blattabacterium host
106
species of based on 18S rDNA were found to be equivalent to those of Blattabacterium
107
strains (data not shown).
