Abstract:
Enterobacter sp. J49 is a plant growth promoting endophytic strain that promotes the growth of peanut and maize crops. This strain promotes plant growth by different mechanisms with the supply of soluble phosphorus being one of the most important. Enterobacter sp. J49 not only increases the phosphorus content in the plant but also in the soil favoring the nutrition of other plants usually used in rotation with these crops. The aims of this study were to analyze the genome sequence of Enterobacter sp. J49 in order to deepen our knowledge regarding its plant growth promoting traits and to establish its phylogenetic relationship with other species of Enterobacter genus. Genome sequence of Enterobacter sp. J49 is a valuable source of information to continuing the research of its potential industrial production as a biofertilizer of peanut, maize and other economically important crops.
