Draft Genome Sequences of Phytase Active Endophytic and Epiphytic Erwinia gerundensis Isolated from Wheat (Triticum aestivum) Seeds.

Here, we provide draft genome sequences of an epiphytic strain (HEP01) and an endophytic strain (HEN01) of Erwinia gerundensis, isolated from wheat (Triticum aestivum) seeds. Genome sizes of HEP01 and HEN01 were 3,771,322 bp and 3,750,048 bp, respectively. HEP01 and HEN01 carried one plasmid each with sizes of 565,617 bp and 576,781 bp, respectively. Both showed phenotypic phytase activity.
