Burkholderia phytofirmans PsJNT is able to efficiently colonize the rhizosphere, root, and
above-ground plant tissues of a wide variety of genetically unrelated plants, such as
potatoes, canola, maize, and grapevines. Strain PsJN shows strong plant growth-promoting
effects and was reported to enhance plant vigor and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses.
Here, we report the genome sequence of this strain, which indicates the presence of multiple
traits relevant for endophytic colonization and plant growth promotion. Bacterial endophytes …
