Whole genome sequence data of Paenibacillus tyrfis YSS-72.2.G2, a chitinolytic bacterium newly isolated from a National Park of Vietnam

Abstract

Paenibacillus tyrfis YSS-72.2.G2 is a soil chitinolytic bacterium newly isolated from Yok Don National Park of Vietnam. Our previous results demonstrated that this bacterium was a strong chitinase producer, possessed plant growth promotion, and had high activity against phytopathogenic fungi. However, the genome sequence of this strain is unknown. This work aimed to establish data on the genome sequence of P. tyrfis YSS-72.2.G2 and its chitinase system for further assessments regarding biocontrol mechanisms and plant growth promotion. The P. tyrfis YSS-72.2.G2 genome is 7,756,121 bp in size and 53.4 % G+C. It harbors 6,948 protein-coding genes, 5 rRNA genes, 82 tRNA genes, 4 ncRNA genes, 99 pseudo genes, and 5 CRISPR arrays. Genes involved in heavy metal resistance (5 genes), iron acquisition (5 genes), and IAA biosynthesis (5 genes) were predicted in the genome. There were 234 carbohydrate-active enzymes found in this genome; among them, 13 enzymes possibly possess activity against phytopathogens. Chitin-degrading system of YSS-72.2.G2 contains 15 chitinolytic enzymes. In addition, 28 gene clusters coding for antimicrobial metabolites were identified, of these, 14 show no sequence similarities to the known clusters. The raw sequences were submitted to the Sequence Read Archive on the National Center for Biotechnology Information with accession number PRJNA946889. The genome sequence of P. tyrfis YSS-72.2.G2 has been deposited in the DDBJ/GenBank/EMBL database under accession number NZ_BSDJ00000000. Data provide insight into the genomic information of strain YSS-72.2.G2. This is the first work reporting data on the genome sequence of P. tyrfis isolated from Vietnam.
