ABSTRACT Pseudomonas putida B001 is a rhizobacterium that was isolated on the basis of its abilities to grow under low-nutrient conditions and induce systemic resistance against bacterial, fungal, and viral diseases of plants. Here we report the draft genome sequence and automatic annotation of strain B001. Comparison of this sequence to the sequenced genome of P. putida KT2440 points to a subset of gene functions that may be related to the defense-inducing functions of B001.
