Publication date: Available online 23 March 2017 Source:Genomics Data Author(s): Rajnish Prakash Singh, Shreyansh Nalwaya, Prabhat Nath Jha Here, we report the draft genome sequence and annotation of plant growth promoting rhizobacterium Enterobacter cloacae SBP-8 isolated from the rhizosphere of Sorghum bicolor L. growing in desert region of Rajasthan, India. From the genome sequences, we identified the genes encoding plant growth promoting properties such as 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (AcdS), phosphate solubilisation, siderophore, and IAA (indole acetic acid) production. The genes encoding different functions required for colonization including motility, chemotaxis, adherence, and secretion system (I, II, IV, VI) were also identified. The complete genome sequence of this bacterium consists of one chromosome (48,54,065bp) and one plasmid (85,398). The genome sequence of Enterobacter cloacae SBP-8 was deposited in the Genbank with the accession number CP016906 (chromosome) and CP017413 (plasmid).
