The plant soil rhizobiome induces critical functions in the plant proximal environment. Linkages between soil microbiota and primary functional attributes are underexplored. Here, we present the metagenomes of maize soil rhizosphere organisms with functional diversity associated with farms at two different municipalities in North West and Gauteng provinces of South Africa. We describe a plenteous and diverse microbial community.
