The Bacillus velezensis strain HC-5, isolated from rhizosphere soil of ginger, exhibits effective biocontrol activity against ginger bacterial wilt. However, its genomic information has remained unexplored. This study presents the complete genome sequence of B. velezensis HC-5. The genome spans 4,237,244 bp and consists of 4,258 genes, with a total GC content of 45.85%. The HC-5 genome comprises 4,058 coding genes, 86 transfer RNAs, 27 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 19 small RNAs (sRNAs), 70 interspersed repeats, and 74 tandem repeats. Moreover, we identified 10 gene clusters responsible for the biosynthesis of antibiotic compounds and 28 two-component systems associated with the bacterium's environmental adaptability. This genome sequence of B. velezensis HC-5 enhances our understanding of its biocontrol mechanisms and supports its potential development as an effective biocontrol agent for managing bacterial wilt in ginger production.
