Wheat scab caused by  F. graminearum  is a highly destructive disease that leads to yield reduction and mycotoxin contamination of grains. In this study, an endophytic bacterium of strain YB-130 was isolated from surface sterilized wheat spikes with scab symptoms and identified as  Bacillus velezensis  by whole genome annotation, 16S rRNA gene and average nucleotide identities analysis. The whole-genome sequence of strain YB-130 was obtained by PacBio sequencing. 88 putative Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes and 12 gene clusters encoding for secondary metabolites were identified in the YB-130 genome, including one gene cluster for the synthesis of lanthipeptide only found in strain YB-130 genome. In dual cultures, strain YB-130 significantly inhibited the growth of  F. graminearum  PH-1 and other eight fungal plant pathogens, indicating a broad antifungal activity. Furthermore, strain YB-130 was able to significantly inhibit spore morphology and hyphal development of  F. graminearum  PH-1. Strain YB-130 also reduced deoxynivalenol production by  F. graminearum  PH-1 in dual cultures, possibly due to its ability to suppress the expression of  tri5 ,  tri3 , and  tri8  that are required for deoxynivalenol production in  F. graminearum . Overall,  B. velezensis  YB-130 is a promising biological control agent of both  F. graminearum  infection and mycotoxin production.
