Genome Sequences of 42 Bacteria Isolated from Sorghum bicolor Roots

Abstract

Forty-two bacterial strains were isolated from root samples of Sorghum bicolor . The strains spanned 17 genera, including Dechloromonas , Duganella , Dyella , Flavobacterium , Herbaspirillum , Lutibacter , Mucilaginibacter , Novosphingobium , Paraburkholderia , Pedobacter , Pleomorphomonas , Rhizobacter , Rhizobium , Rhizomicrobium , Rugamonas , Variovorax , and Xanthobacter . Their whole-genome sequences revealed diverse metabolic processes, including biological nitrogen fixation, in sorghum root microbiota.
