Complete genome sequence of Mesorhizobium opportunistum type strain WSM2075T

چکیده
Mesorhizobium opportunistum strain WSM2075(T) was isolated in Western Australia in 2000 from root nodules of the pasture legume Biserrula pelecinus that had been inoculated with M. ciceri bv. biserrulae WSM1271. WSM2075(T) is an aerobic, motile, Gram negative, non-spore-forming rod that has gained the ability to nodulate B. pelecinus but is completely ineffective in N2 fixation with this host. This report reveals that the genome of M. opportunistum strain WSM2075(T) contains a chromosome of size 6,884,444 bp, encoding 6,685 protein-coding genes and 62 RNA-only encoding genes. The genome contains no plasmids, but does harbor a 455.7 kb genomic island from Mesorhizobium ciceri bv. biserrulae WSM1271 that has been integrated into a phenylalanine-tRNA gene.

Biserrula pelecinus L. is a pasture legume that was introduced to Australia from the Mediterranean basin in 1993. Although the native rhizobial population could not nodulate B. pelecinus at the time of its introduction, recent research has shown the emergence of a diversity of strains (novel isolates) that are able to do so. Three novel isolates, WSM2073T, WSM2074 and WSM2076, had nearly identi...

The genus Mesorhizobium includes species nodulating several legumes, such as chickpea, which has a high agronomic importance. Chickpea rhizobia were originally described as either Mesorhizobium ciceri or M. mediterraneum. However, rhizobia able to nodulate chickpea have been shown to belong to several different species within the genus Mesorhizobium. The present study used a multilocus sequence...
