16S rRNA metagenomic dataset on endophytic bacterial community of the cashew plant (Anacardium occidentale L.) grown in Dak Lak Province of Vietnam.

ABSTRACT: Vietnam is currently one of the largest producers and exporters of cashew nuts in the world. Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is one of the main industrial crops cultivated in Dak Lak Province of Vietnam. Comprehending the endophytic bacteria of this plant, a new biofertilizer for sustainable cashew nut production can be progressed. In this report, the cashew root sample was collected from cashew fields in 2021 in Dak Lak. The DNeasy Powersoil kit was used to extract the genomic DNA of endophytic bacteria from the root sample. The 16S rRNA genes (V1-V9 regions) were amplified by PCR, and libraries of amplicons were prepared using the Swift amplicon 16S plus ITS panel kit. The Illumina MiSeq platform was applied to sequence amplicon libraries using 16S rRNA metagenomics. Taxonomic analyses showed that Gammaproteobacteria (38.77 %) and Alphaproteobacteria (37.76 %) were the predominant classes among the endophytic bacteria. Functional analyses revealed that biosynthesis (72.78 %) was the primary function of the endophytic bacterial community. Raw sequences (Fastq files) have been deposited in Mendeley Data [1]. The obtained data provide insight into the endophytic bacterial community of cashews cultivated in Dak Lak Province of Vietnam. The data are valuable for further developing a new biofertilizer for cashew nut production using endophytic bacteria. Ours is the first report about endophytic bacterial communities of cashews cultivated in this province as well as the Central Highlands of Vietnam.

Project description:BackgroundCashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is a crop currently grown in several tropical countries because of the economic importance of cashew nuts. Despite its enormous economic worth, limited research has been conducted on the molecular diversity of cashew genetic resources. In this study, a wide comprehensive assessment of the genetic diversity of cashew trees in East Timor was performed using microsatellites (SSRs) to evaluate intraspecific diversity and population structuring.MethodsA total of 207 individual cashew trees, including trees from East Timor (11), and outgroup populations from Indonesia (one) and Mozambique (two), were analyzed with 16 cashew-specific SSRs. A comprehensive sampling of cashew trees within East Timor was performed, covering the distribution of cashew orchards in the country. Genetic diversity indices were calculated, and population structuring was determined using three different approaches: genetic distances (UPGMA and NJ), AMOVA, and individual-based clustering methods through Bayesian (STRUCTURE) and multivariate (DAPC) analyses.ResultsThe population structuring analysis revealed that the genetic diversity of cashew populations in East Timor was higher in this study than previously reported for cashew trees. A higher allelic richness was found within cashew populations in East Timor compared with the outgroup populations (Mozambique and Indonesia), reinforced by the presence of private alleles. Moreover, our study showed that cashew populations in East Timor are grouped into two dissimilar genetic groups, which may suggest multiple cashew introductions over time. These new cashew genetic resources could be explored for future crop improvement.ConclusionsCrop diversity underpins the productivity, resilience, and adaptive capacity of agriculture. Therefore, this study provides useful information regarding genetic diversity and population structure that can be harnessed to improve cashew production in East Timor. This data is also important to creating a country-specific genetic cashew signature to increase cashew market value.
