Complete Genome Sequence of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Ach5

Abstract

<i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i> 1D1609 is a highly virulent strain isolated from a crown gall tumor of alfalfa (<i>Medicago sativa</i> L.). Compared to other well-characterized <i>A. tumefaciens</i> strains, such as C58 and Ach5, 1D1609 has a distinctive host range. Here, we report its complete genome sequence to facilitate future studies.
