Abstract

Here, plant growth-promoting Stenotrophomonas strains isolated from the sunflower root endosphere were studied. Bacterial DNA was sequenced on Illumina's NextSeq platform. The gene prediction reveals diverse functional genes involved in plant growth promotion from each bacterial genome. The exploration of bacterial resources as bioinoculants is promising for agricultural biotechnology.
