Metagenome assembly and annotation of data from the rhizosphere soil of drought-stressed CRN-3505 maize cultivar.

This data article reports shotgun metagenomic data obtained from drought-stressed maize rhizosphere through the Illumina Novaseq platform, utilizing the KBase online platform. 428,339,852 high-quality post-sequences were obtained, showcasing an average GC content of 65.45 %.

Revealing the active microbiome connected with the rhizosphere soil of maize plants in Ventersdorp, South Africa.

We conducted shotgun metagenomics sequencing of the maize rhizosphere and bulk soils in Ventersdorp, South Africa. Information on the structural composition and functional capabilities of microbial communities in the maize rhizosphere are provided by the data. Characterising the functional potentials of rhizosphere microbiomes gives an opportunity to link the microbiome to plant growth and health and provides the possibility of discovering new plant-beneficial genes that could enhance agricultural sustainability.

Metagenome Assembly and Metagenome-Assembled Genome Sequences from the Rhizosphere of Maize Plants in Mafikeng, South Africa.

The rhizosphere microbiome plays an essential role in enhancing the growth of plants, raising the need for comprehension of their metabolic abilities. Here, we investigated rhizospheric and bulk soils of maize plants in Mafikeng, South Africa. Metagenome-assembled genomes containing plant growth-promoting genes were reconstructed.
