High quality draft genome sequence of the type strain of Pseudomonas lutea OK2^T, a phosphate-solubilizing rhizospheric bacterium

Pseudomonas lutea OK2^T (=LMG 21974^T, CECT 5822^T) is the type strain of the species and was isolated from the rhizosphere of grass growing in Spain in 2003 based on its phosphate-solubilizing capacity. In order to identify the functional significance of phosphate solubilization in Pseudomonas Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, we describe here the phenotypic characteristics of strain OK2^T along with its high-quality draft genome sequence, its annotation, and analysis. The genome is comprised of 5,647,497 bp with 60.15 % G + C content. The sequence includes 4,846 protein-coding genes and 95 RNA genes.
