Draft genome sequence of <i>Methylobacterium aquaticum</i> LEGMi-203a, isolated from root nodules of <i>Pithecellobium hymenaeifolium</i>
We report the draft genome of <i>Methylobacterium aquaticum</i> LEGMi-203a, a root nodule isolated from <i>Pithecellobium hymenaeifolium</i>. Genomic analysis supports its classification as <i>M. aquaticum,</i> and annotated nitrogen fixation and nodulation genes underscore its possible functional capabilities as a symbiont in tropical plants.
