Genome sequence of the symbiotic type strain <i>Mesorhizobium helmanticense</i> CSLC115N isolated from <i>Lotus corniculatus</i> nodules

Abstract

<i>Mesorhizobium helmanticense</i> is a novel species that was isolated from root nodules of <i>Lotus corniculatus</i> 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 <i>M. helmanticense</i> CSLC115N is reported in this study.
