Complete genome sequences of the species type strains Sinorhizobium garamanticum LMG 24692T and Sinorhizobium numidicum LMG 27395T and CIP 109850T
The genus Sinorhizobium comprises rhizobia that fix nitrogen in symbiosis with legumes. To support taxonomic studies of this genus and of rhizobia more broadly, we report complete genome sequences and annotations for the species type strains Sinorhizobium garamanticum LMG 24692T and Sinorhizobium numidicum LMG 27395T and CIP 109850T. Average nucleotide identity and core-genome phylogenetic analyses confirm that S. garamanticum and S. numidicum represent distinct species.
