Draft Genome Sequence of the Endophyte Paenibacillus sp. Strain GM2FR Isolated from Festuca rubra.

Here, we report the 7.4-Mb draft genome sequence of Paenibacillus sp. strain GM2FR, an endophytic bacterium isolated from aerial plant tissues of Festuca rubra L. Genome analysis revealed 6,652 coding gene sequences and several gene clusters involved in plant growth promotion, such as that for the siderophore bacillibactin.
