This is a pioneering report on the metagenomic exploration of the bacterial diversity from a busy sea port in Paradip, Odisha, India. In our study, high-throughput sequencing of community 16S rRNA gene amplicon was performed using 454 GS Junior platform. Metagenome contain 34,121 sequences with 16,677,333 bp and 56.3% G + C content. Metagenome sequences data are now available at NCBI under the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) database with accession no. SRX897055. Community metagenome sequence revealed the presence of 11,705 species belonging to 40 different phyla. Bacteroidetes (23%), Firmicutes (19%), Proteobacteria (17%), Spirochaetes (10%), Nitrospirae (8%), Actinobacteria (7%) and Acidobacteria (3%) are the predominant bacterial phyla in this port soil. Analysis of metagenomic sequences unfolded the interesting distribution of several phyla which pointed to the significant anthropogenic intervention influencing the bacterial community character of this port.
