Paenibacillus riograndensis is a Gram-positive rhizobacterium which exhibits plant growth promoting activities. It was isolated from the rhizosphere of wheat grown in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Here we announce the complete genome sequence of P. riograndensis strain SBR5(T). The genome of P. riograndensis SBR5(T) consists of a circular chromosome of 7,893,056bps. The genome was finished and fully annotated, containing 6705 protein coding genes, 87 tRNAs and 27 rRNAs. The knowledge of the complete genome helped to explain why P. riograndensis SBR5(T) can grow with the carbon sources arabinose and mannitol, but not myo-inositol, and to explain physiological features such as biotin auxotrophy and antibiotic resistances. The genome sequence will be valuable for functional genomics and ecological studies as well as for application of P. riograndensis SBR5(T) as plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium.
里奥格兰德芽孢杆菌是一种革兰氏阳性根际细菌，具有促进植物生长的活性。它是从巴西南里奥格兰德州种植的小麦根际中分离出来的。在此，我们公布里奥格兰德芽孢杆菌菌株SBR5(T)的完整基因组序列。里奥格兰德芽孢杆菌SBR5(T)的基因组由一条7,893,056bps的环状染色体组成。该基因组已完成测序并得到充分注释，包含6705个蛋白质编码基因、87个tRNA和27个rRNA。完整基因组的知识有助于解释为什么里奥格兰德芽孢杆菌SBR5(T)能够利用阿拉伯糖和甘露醇作为碳源生长，但不能利用肌醇生长，还能解释其生物素营养缺陷型和抗生素抗性等生理特征。该基因组序列对于功能基因组学和生态学研究以及将里奥格兰德芽孢杆菌SBR5(T)作为促进植物生长的根际细菌的应用具有重要价值。
