Pseudomonas shirazica (the synonymous with Pseudomonas asiatica) is highly diverse bacterial species with important phenotypic traits relevant to human activities. We sequenced and assembled the genome of P. shirazica strain HY376 using long-read sequencing. The assembly resulted in a circular chromosome of 5,683,422 bp with 62.6% G+C content. The annotation revealed 5,181 genes, including 4,951 coding genes, 130 pseudogenes, 22 rRNAs, 74 tRNAs, and four non-coding RNAs. Additionally, it uncovered gene multiplicity and intra-genomic variations in key rRNA genes, which are important for molecular taxonomy. This study adds the eighth complete-level P. shirazica genome to GenBank, along with two complete-level P. shirazica and five P. asiatica genomes.
