Draft Genome Sequence of Cupriavidus UYMMa02A, a Novel Beta-Rhizobium Species

Draft Genome Sequence of Cupriavidus UYMMa02A, a Novel Beta-Rhizobium Species

We present the draft genome of Cupriavidus UYMMa02A, a rhizobium strain isolated from root nodules of Mimosa magentea The assembly has approximately 8.1 million bp with an average G+C of 64.1%. Symbiotic and metal-resistance genes were identified. The study of this genome will contribute to the understanding of rhizobial evolution.

Draft Genome Sequence of Rhizobium rhizogenes Strain ATCC 15834

Here, we present the draft genome of Rhizobium rhizogenes strain ATCC 15834. The genome contains 7,070,307 bp in 43 scaffolds. R. rhizogenes, also known as Agrobacterium rhizogenes, is a plant pathogen that causes hairy root disease. This hairy root induction has been used in biotechnology for the generation of transgenic root cultures.

Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Nonnodulating Rhizobium Species Isolated from Agave americana L. Rhizosphere

We report here the complete genome sequence of Rhizobium sp. strain ACO-34A, isolated from Agave americana L. rhizosphere. No common nod genes were found, but there were nif genes for nitrogen fixing. A low average nucleotide identity to reported species supports its designation as a novel Rhizobium species that has a complete ribosomal operon in a plasmid.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Caffeine-Utilizing Bacterium, Cupriavidus sp. Strain D384

Cupriavidus sp. D384 was isolated from forest soil in Japan and is known to utilize caffeine as a sole source of carbon and energy. We report here the 6,835,230-bp genome sequence for this strain, which contains 6,116 predicted coding sequences, including gene operon for alkaloid degradation.
