Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Nonnodulating Rhizobium Species Isolated from Agave americana L. Rhizosphere.

ABSTRACT: We report here the complete genome sequence of Rhizobium sp. strain ACO-34A, isolated from Agave americana L. rhizosphere. No common nod genes were found, but there were nif genes for nitrogen fixing. A low average nucleotide identity to reported species supports its designation as a novel Rhizobium species that has a complete ribosomal operon in a plasmid.
