Draft genome sequence of Rahnella aquatilis strain HX2, a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium isolated from vineyard soil in Beijing, China

Abstract

Rahnella aquatilis strain HX2 is a plant growth-promoting, disease-suppressive rhizobacterium that was isolated from a vineyard soil in Beijing, China. Here, we report the genome sequence of this strain, which provides a valuable resource for future research examining the mechanisms of traits associated with plant growth promotion and biocontrol. © 2012, American Society for Microbiology.
