Draft Genome Sequences of Klebsiella variicola Plant Isolates

Genome Announc. 2015 Sep 10;3(5):e01015-15. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01015-15.

Abstract

Three endophytic Klebsiella variicola isolates-T29A, 3, and 6A2, obtained from sugar cane stem, maize shoots, and banana leaves, respectively-were used for whole-genome sequencing. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of circular chromosomes and plasmids. The genomes contain plant colonization and cellulases genes. This study will help toward understanding the genomic basis of K. variicola interaction with plant hosts.
