Blastobacter is a genus of bacteria from the family of Bradyrhizobiaceae. Most of the species originally ascribed to Blastobacter have been transferred to other genera, with only Blastobacter henricii remaining. To complicate matters, no type strain is available for Blastobacter henricii, so the entire genus may be dismantled.
