Abstract

We report the draft genome sequences of plant growth-promoting Rahnella perminowiae strain S11P1, Variovorax sp. strain S12S4, and Pseudomonas sp. strains S11A4 and S11P7, which were isolated from saffron (Crocus sativus L.) rhizosphere. Several genes were predicted to be involved in auxin production, phosphate solubilization, and other specialized functions in plant growth and defense.
