Abstract
Lysobacter capsici strain X2-3 was isolated from the wheat rhizosphere in China and exhibits a remarkable capacity to inhibit the growth of multiple pathogens. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of L. capsici strain X2-3 in China.
Highlights
The genus Lysobacter is composed of 16 species that are typically found in soil and water habitats [1]
A few strains of this species that serve as sources of potential biocontrol agents have shown antimicrobial activity against several plant pathogens [4,5,6]
Strain X2-3 was isolated from the wheat rhizosphere and identified as L. capsici by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis
Summary
The genus Lysobacter is composed of 16 species that are typically found in soil and water habitats [1]. A striking feature of Lysobacter is its lytic activity against other microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria, and nematodes [2]. Lysobacter capsici is a novel species established in 2008, which was first isolated from the rhizosphere of pepper [3]. A few strains of this species that serve as sources of potential biocontrol agents have shown antimicrobial activity against several plant pathogens [4,5,6].
