Abstract

Kosakonia radicincitas UYSO10 is an endophytic bacterium that was isolated from stem tissues of Saccharum officinarum plants cultivated in Uruguay. UYSO10 is a diazotrophic indoleacetic acid-producing bacterium with growth-promoting effects on sugarcane. Here, we report the draft genome sequence, in which genes that are probably involved in the plant-bacterium interaction were identified.
