Genome sequence of the endophytic biocontrol and plant growth-promoting Serratia marcescens strain Sm25P5 from wheat seed

Open access0 citations

Abstract

ABSTRACT We report the whole genome of Serratia marcescens strain Sm25P5, an endophyte isolated from blast-resistant wheat seed. The 5.1-Mb genome harbors diverse putative biosynthetic gene associated with nutrient accumulation, mobilization, and antifungal activity, supporting its plant growth-promoting and biocontrol potential.
