Genome sequence of Microbacterium testaceum StLB037, an N-acylhomoserine lactone-degrading bacterium isolated from potato leaves. [PDF]
J Bacteriol, 2011 Microbacterium testaceum is an endophytic Gram-positive bacterium that resides within plant hosts. M. testaceum StLB037 was isolated from potato leaves and shows N-acylhomoserine lactone-degrading activity. Here, we present the 3.98-Mb complete genome sequence of StLB037, with an average GC content of 70.28%.
