Abstract:Endophytic bacteria were isolated from Citrus plants and based on the similarity of 16S rRNA gene sequence, 20 isolates were included in the genus Curtobacterium in the family Microbacteriaceae, class Actinobacteria. Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) analysis indicated that these strains formed four clusters with low variability that were separated from Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens. The isolates were Gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore forming, pale-yellow to orange-pink colonies. Analysis of ele… Show more
