Whole-genome sequence of Bacillus velezensis strain R22 isolated from Oryza sativa rhizosphere in Bulgaria

Bacillus velezensis R22 was isolated from a rice rhizosphere in Bulgaria. Its genome (assembled into 14 scaffolds) has a size of 4.08 Mbp and a G + C content of 46.35%. Nine full biosynthetic clusters for antimicrobials were predicted, among them two new gene clusters probably encoding polyketides named macrolactin R22 and velezensin.
