Genome sequence of the symbiotic type strain Mesorhizobium helmanticense CSLC115N isolated from Lotus corniculatus nodules

Abstract

Mesorhizobium helmanticense is a novel species that was isolated from root nodules of Lotus corniculatus grown in an alfisol soil from Carbajosa de la Sagrada, a Mediterranean region in the province of Salamanca in northwest Spain. The whole-genome sequence of the type strain M. helmanticense CSLC115N is reported in this study.
