Here, we describe the draft genome sequence ofMesorhizobium amorphae strain CCNWGS0123, isolated from nodules ofRobinia pseudoacacia growing on zinc-lead mine tailings. A large number of metal(loid) resistance genes, as well as genes reported to promote plant growth, were identified, presenting a great future potential for aiding phytoremediation in metal(loid)-contaminated soil.
