We present the whole-genome sequence of four bacterial endophytes associated with German hardneck garlic cloves (Allium sativum L.). Among them, Agrobacterium fabrum and Pantoea agglomerans are associated with plant protection, while Rahnella perminowiae and Stenotrophomonas lactitubi are pathogens. These data will facilitate the identification of genes to improve garlic.
Keywords: Allium sativum; German hardneck garlic cloves; disease resistant; endophyte genomes; pathogenicity.
