Draft Genome Sequences of Thelohania contejeani and Cucumispora dikerogammari, Pathogenic Microsporidia of Freshwater Crustaceans.

We announce the draft genome sequences of two pathogenic microsporidia of European freshwater crustaceans, Thelohania contejeani (the causative agent of porcelain disease) and Cucumispora dikerogammari Both species are implicated in mass mortalities in natural populations of their crayfish and amphipod hosts, respectively.
