Comparative genomics provides insights into the taxonomy of Azoarcus and reveals separate origins of nif genes in the proposed Azoarcus and Aromatoleum genera

Abstract:

Among other attributes, the Betaproteobacterial genus Azoarcus has biotechnological importance for plant growth-promotion and remediation of petroleum waste-polluted water and soils. It comprises at least two phylogenetically distinct groups. The “plant-associated” group includes strains that are isolated from the rhizosphere or root interior of the C4 plant Kallar Grass, but also strains from soil and/or water; all are considered to be obligate aerobes and all are diazotrophic. The ...
