Genome Sequences Of 42 Bacteria Isolated From Sorghum Bicolor Roots

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