Complete Genome Sequence ofBradyrhizobium japonicumJ5, Isolated from a Soybean Nodule in Hokkaido, Japan.
Soybean bradyrhizobia form root nodules on soybean plants and symbiotically fix N2Strain J5 is phylogenetically far from well-known representatives within theBradyrhizobium japonicumlinage. The complete genome showed the largest single chromosomal (10.1 Mb) and symbiosis island (998 kb) among complete genomes of soybean bradyrhizobia.
