Mesorhizobium loti, formerly known as Rhizobium loti,[1] is a Gram negative species of bacteria found in the root nodules of many plant species.[2] Its name is a reference to Lotus corniculatus, a flowering plant from which it was originally isolated.
The complete genome sequence of a strain of M. loti was determined in 2000.[3]
