Abstract

Mucilaginibacter species have been isolated from various environments, often in association with plants. Here, we report the complete genomes of Mucilaginibacter sabulilitoris SNA2 and Mucilaginibacter sp. cycad4. The former is the first available for that species, and based on 16S sequence analysis, the latter strain is likely a new species.

Keywords: Mucilaginibacter; endophytes; genomes; plant growth promotion.
