Genome Sequence of Enterobacter radicincitans DSM16656 ^T , a Plant Growth-Promoting Endophyte

Abstract

Enterobacter radicincitans sp. nov. DSM16656(T) represents a new species of the genus Enterobacter which is a biological nitrogen-fixing endophytic bacterium with growth-promoting effects on a variety of crop and model plant species. The presence of genes for nitrogen fixation, phosphorous mobilization, and phytohormone production reflects this microbe's potential plant growth-promoting activity.
