Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in Sequenced Genomes of Four Contrasting Rhizobacteria in Phytopathogen Inhibition and Interaction with Capsicum annuum Roots.

Through screening of rhizobacteria, species that effectively suppress phytopathogens and/or promote plant growth are found. Genome sequencing is a crucial step in obtaining a complete characterization of microorganisms for biotechnological applications. This study aimed to sequence the genomes of four rhizobacteria that differ in their inhibition of four root pathogens and in their interaction with chili pepper roots to identify the species and analyze differences in the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) for antibiotic metabolites and to determine possible phenotype-genotype correlations.

Draft Genome Sequence of Paenibacillus polymyxa 3A-25AI, a Strain Antagonist to Root Rot Causal Phytopathogens.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the 3A-25AI strain, isolated from the rhizosphere of wild grass. This strain inhibits and phytopathogens. The genome size is 5.

Genome Sequence of Bacillus halotolerans Strain MS50-18A with Antifungal Activity against Phytopathogens, Isolated from Saline Soil in San Luís Potosí, Mexico.

strain MS50-18A, isolated from saline soil, possesses antifungal activity toward root rot causal phytopathogens and has friendly interactions with the chili pepper plant. The draft genome sequence is 4.06 Mb in length and contains 4,215 genes.

Draft Genome Sequence of 2C-9B, a Strain with Biocontrol Potential against Chili Pepper Root Pathogens and Tolerance to Pb and Zn.

2C-9B, obtained from the rhizosphere of wild grass, exhibits inhibition against root rot causal pathogens in , Pb and Zn tolerance, and plant growth promotion in medium supplemented with Pb. The genome of 2C-9B was sequenced and the draft genome assembled, with a length of 4,215,855 bp and 4,723 coding genes.

Draft genome sequence of 2A-2B strain: a rhizospheric inhabitant of (Torr.) Torr, with antifungal activity against root rot causing phytopathogens.

A strain from the rhizosphere of (Torr.) Torr, a grass in central-north México, was isolated during a biocontrol of phytopathogens scrutiny study. The 2A-2B strain exhibited at least 60% of growth inhibition of virulent isolates of phytopathogens causing root rot.

Draft Genome Sequence of 3A-25B, a Strain with Biocontrol Activity against Fungal and Oomycete Root Plant Phytopathogens, Isolated from Grassland Soil.

Here, we present the draft genome of 3A-25B, which totaled 4.01 Mb with 36 contigs, 3,948 genes, and a GC content of 46.34%.
