Dickeya zeae is the causative agent of rice root rot disease and causes severe harvest and economic losses. In this study, the Bacillus velezensis strain J17-4 with significant antagonism against D. zeae was used to generate DNA for sequencing. After assembly, a high-quality complete genome comprising only a circular chromosome was available. The genome sequence consists of a total of 3,877 prediction coding sequences and nine types of gene clusters involved in secondary metabolite production. This genome data will provide information for understanding the underlying mechanism of strain J17-4 antagonist against D. zeae and a new useful source for comparative genomics studies between strains isolated from various habitats.
