Genome Sequence of the Oocydin A-Producing Rhizobacterium Serratia plymuthica 4Rx5

Matilla MA1,2, Udaondo Z3, Salmond GPC1. Abstract Serratia plymuthica 4Rx5 was isolated from the rhizosphere of oilseed rape due to its antagonistic properties against plant-pathogenic fungi. The strain 4Rx5 produces the antifungal and antioomycete haterumalide, oocydin A. Analysis of its genome revealed the presence of various gene clusters putatively involved in the biosynthesis of additional secondary metabolites. […]
