ABSTRACT In investigating potential flavor-altering microbiota in beer, we isolated a new bacterial species, Bradyrhizobium sp. WCU1, from a commercially available beer. We report its complete genome sequence, which includes genes for survival at low pH, growth on maltose, and for photosynthetic processes. The isolate does not contain nitrogen-fixation genes.
Velásquez et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
