Here, we present the genome sequence and annotated features of Rhizobium tropici strain A12, which is able to nodulate tropical Glycine max (soybean). The draft genome of the strain consists of 107 contigs totaling 6.5 Mbp in size. The annotation revealed 6,204 protein-coding genes, 52 tRNAs, and 7 rRNAs.
