Draft genome sequence of Rhizobium sp. H41, a rock-weathering bacterium from a weathered rock surface

Abstract

Rhizobium sp. H41 isolated from weathered tuff can weather tuff and release Fe, Si, and Al from the rock under nutrient-poor conditions. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of strain H41, which may facilitate a better understanding of the molecular mechanism involved in rock weathering by the bacterium.
