ABSTRACT

We present the whole-genome sequences of five endophytic bacteria isolated from Musa balbisiana seeds. These strains represent five different genera Bacillus, Brachybacterium, Enterobacter, Enterococcus, and Pantoea. Among these, three genera (Bacillus, Pantoea, and Enterobacter) were previously recognized for their antagonistic effects against Fusarium wilt, a highly destructive disease that affects banana plants.

Key words

Fusarium wilt; Musa balbisiana; seed endophytes; wild-type banana seed (WTBS)
