The mangrove ecosystem contains sediment microorganisms that play a crucial part in the decomposition of organic matter and the cycling of water and nutrients in the mangrove. Here we present the metagenomics whole genome shotgun (mWGS) sequence data analysis from three soil samples that were collected at the freshwater riverine mangrove at Lukut River, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. Data analysis shows different distributions of bacteria of the genera Bradyrhizobium, Methyloceanibacter and Desulfobacteaceae were detected in soil samples collected at freshwater riverine mangrove. In the data analysis, we report the existence of a large number of Carbohydrate-Active genes in metagenomes collected from mangrove soil. An in-depth exploration of functional annotation analysis based on the KEGG database also showed that the most abundant genes found in these three soils are those that function in carbon fixation pathways, followed by methane, nitrogen, sulfur metabolisms, atrazine and dioxin degradations.
