The bacterial strain M5al is a model strain for studying the molecular genetics of N<sub>2</sub>-fixation and molecular engineering of microbial production of platform chemicals 1,3-propanediol and 2,3-butanediol. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of the strain M5al, which belongs to a novel species closely related to <i>Klebsiella michiganensis</i>. M5al secretes plant cell wall-degrading enzymes and colonizes rice roots but does not cause soft rot disease. M5al also produces sidero ...[more]
