Endophytic bacteriome data of established by metagenomic 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

This work reported the diversity profiling and predicted metabolic function of the endophytic bacteriome of lychee ( S.) cultivated in Dak Lak Province of Vietnam for the first time. Roots of lychee were collected from three different fields in Krong Ana District in Dak Lak. 16S rRNA primers were used to sequence the metagenomic library. Kraken 2 was used to analyze the taxonomic distribution, while the MetaCyc database was used to predict the metabolic function. We identified 10 phyla, 14 classes, 27 orders, 30 families, and 27 genera of the endophytic bacteria from the sample. Actinomycetota was the most predominant phylum (84.49%), and biosynthesis was the bacteriome's primary function (75.42%). Data provided insight into the taxonomic distribution and metabolic function of lychee endophytic bacteria and might be helpful for the next steps concerning sustainable lychee cultivation using endophytic bacteria.
