Species code:	AZOC5
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Alphaproteobacteria; Rhizobiales; Xanthobacteraceae; Azorhizobium (TaxID: 438753) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Azorhizobium caulinodans strain ORS571 is a microsymbiont of the water-tolerant tropical legume Sesbania rostrata, forming N2-fixing nodules not only on the roots but also on the stems. It contains nod, nif, and fix genes and so probably initiates nodulation like many of the rhizobia. A.caulinodans ORS571 is able to fix nitrogen in the free-living state, which is not the case for most rhizobia.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: not known Interaction: Plant symbiont Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of AZOC5 entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 4708 (278 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 4430 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number AP009384 (circular; 5,369,772 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
