Pseudomonas arenae sp. nov., Pseudomonas glycinis sp. nov. and Pseudomonas harudinis sp. nov., three novel bacterial species and plant endophytes

Abstract

Three novel Pseudomonas species associated with healthy plants are described from the United States. They are Pseudomonas arenae sp. nov. from soybean in Missouri and Phragmites sp. in New Jersey; Pseudomonas glycinis sp. nov. from Vaccinium macrocarpon fruit in Massachusetts, groundwater in Tennessee and soybean in Indiana; and Pseudomonas harudinis sp. nov. from Phragmites sp. in New Jersey. No pathogenic strains are known for any of the novel species based on genome comparisons to assemblies in GenBank.
