Here, we report a chromosome-level genome assembly of Fusarium oxysporum Fo47 (12 pseudomolecules; contig N-50: 4.52 Mb), generated using a combination of PacBio long-read, Illumina paired end, and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture sequencing data. Although F. oxysporum causes vascular wilt to over 100 plant species, the strain Fo47 is classified as an endophyte and is widely used as a biocontrol agent for plant disease control. The Fo47 genome carries a single accessory chromosome of 4.23 Mb, compared with the reference genome of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici Fol4287. The high-quality assembly and annotation of the Fo47 genome will be a valuable resource for studying the mechanisms underlying the endophytic interactions between F. oxysporum and plants as well as for deciphering the genome evolution of the F. oxysporum species complex.
