## Abstract

This study reports the complete genome sequence of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus strain P6E, used as a protein expression vector. The genome is 126,727 bp long, with a G + C content of 40.2% and 141 open reading frames. This strain has a unique combination of bro-paralog genes compared with other Japanese strains.
