Abstract

Non-symbiotic Bradyrhizobium are among the most abundant and ubiquitous microbes in bulk soils globally. Despite this, most available genomic resources for Bradyrhizobium are derived from plant-associated strains. We present high-quality draft genomes for 17 Bradyrhizobium and four Nitrobacteraceae cultures isolated from bulk semiarid soils in Arizona, USA. The genome sizes range from 5.99 to 10.4 Mbp. Phylogenomic analysis of the 21 genomes indicates they fall into four clades. Two of the clades are nested within the Bradyrhizobium genus. The other two clades were associated with Nitrobacteraceae outgroups basal to Bradyrhizobium. All genomes lack genes coding for molybdenum or vanadium nitrogenases, and nod genes that code for proteins involved in nodulation, suggesting these isolates are free-living, non-symbiotic and do not fix dinitrogen gas. These genomes offer new resources for investigating free-living Bradyrhizobium lineages.
