Complete genome sequence of Bradyrhizobium sp. strain ORS3257, an efficient nitrogen-fixing bacterium isolated from cowpea in Senegal

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Bradyrhizobium sp. strain ORS3257, which forms efficient symbioses with cowpea, peanut, or groundnut. These genomic data will be useful to identify genes associated with symbiotic performance and host compatibility on several legumes, including Aeschynomene species, with which a Nod-independent type III secretion system (T3SS)-dependent symbiosis can be established.
