## TL;DR

Six complete genomes of a potential nitrogen-fixing bacteria from seagrass roots are reported, aiding future research on their role in plant growth.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in providing six complete genome sequences of Agarivorans sp. from seagrass, linked to nitrogen fixation.

## Key findings

- Six complete genome sequences of Agarivorans sp. were obtained from Zostera marina.
- The genomes may help study the bacteria's role in seagrass growth and nitrogen fixation.
- The bacteria were isolated from the root endosphere and rhizoplane of seagrass.

## Abstract

We report six complete genome sequences of Agarivorans sp. isolated from Zostera marina’s root endosphere and rhizoplane. The genomes will facilitate future studies investigating the role of these putative nitrogen-fixing bacteria in supporting seagrass growth and metabolism.
