title: Draft Genome Sequence of Plant-Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterium Serratia fonticola Strain AU-AP2C, Isolated from the Pea Rhizosphere. creator: Devi, Usha creator: Khatri, Indu creator: Kumar, Navinder creator: Sharma, Deepak creator: Subramanian, Srikrishna creator: Saini, Adesh K subject: QR Microbiology description: Plant health can be augmented by plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that confer biofertilizer, phytostimulation, and biocontrol activities. Herein, we provide the high-quality draft genome sequence of Serratia fonticola strain AU-AP2C, a Gram-negative motile PGPR of the pea plant, conferring phosphate solubilization, ammonia production, and antifungal activity against Fusarium sp. The 4.9-Mb genome contains genes related to plant growth promotion and synthesis of siderophores. publisher: ASM date: 2013-12-05 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Devi, Usha and Khatri, Indu and Kumar, Navinder and Sharma, Deepak and Subramanian, Srikrishna and Saini, Adesh K (2013) Draft Genome Sequence of Plant-Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterium Serratia fonticola Strain AU-AP2C, Isolated from the Pea Rhizosphere.
