## TL;DR

This paper reports the full genome sequence of a bacteria strain that may help promote plant growth, isolated from a productive paddy field.

## Contribution

The complete genome of Bacillus altitudinis AIMST-CREST03 is newly sequenced and annotated for plant growth-promoting potential.

## Key findings

- The genome is 3,669,202 bp in size with a 41% GC content.
- It contains 3,327 coding sequences, including genes linked to plant growth promotion.

## Abstract

We present the complete genome of a potential plant growth-promoting bacteria Bacillus altitudinis AIMST-CREST03 isolated from a high-yielding paddy plot. The genome is 3,669,202 bp in size with a GC content of 41%. Annotation predicted 3,327 coding sequences, including several genes required for plant growth promotion.
