Abstract

SEMIA 6399^T is the type strain of Bradyrhizobium mercantei, a nitrogen-fixing symbiont of Deguelia costata Its draft genome contains 8,842,857 bp with 8,246 predicted coding sequences (CDS), several related to amino acids and derivatives and to stress tolerance, with an emphasis on oxidative stress, in addition to symbiotic genes.
