Complete Genome Sequences of Six Copper-Resistant Xanthomonas citri pv. citri Strains Causing Asiatic Citrus Canker, Obtained Using Long-Read Technology

چکیده
The gammaproteobacterium Xanthomonas citri pv. citri causes Asiatic citrus canker. Pathotype A strains have a broad host range, which includes most commercial citrus species, and they cause important economic losses worldwide. Control often relies on frequent copper sprays. We present here the complete genomes of six X. citri pv. citri copper-resistant strains.

First Complete Genome Sequences of Xanthomonas citri pv. vignicola Strains CFBP7111, CFBP7112, and CFBP7113 Obtained Using Long-Read Technology
Xanthomonas citri pv. vignicola strains cause bacterial blight of the legume crop cowpea. We report whole-genome sequences of three X. citri pv. vignicola strains obtained using PacBio single-molecule real-time sequencing. Such genomic data provide new information on pathogenicity factors, such as transcription activator-like effectors.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri Strain Aw12879, a Restricted-Host-Range Citrus Canker-Causing Bacterium
Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri causes citrus canker. The Asiatic strain has a broad host range, whereas the Wellington variant has a restricted host range. Here, we present the complete genome of X. citri subsp. citri strain A(W)12879. This study lays the foundation to further characterize the mechanisms for virulence and host range of X. citri.

Xanthomonas citri subsp citri (Xcc) is responsible for one of the most destructive diseases of citrus fruits, Asiatic citrus canker. Based on the bacterial host range, the pathogenic forms, A, A*, and Aw have been identified. A*-type strains are not well characterized and they have been reported to differ from other A-type strains on the basis of biochemical and genetic characteristics. In this...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of Three Xanthomonas citri Strains from Texas
The complete genome sequences of three Xanthomonas citri strains isolated from lime trees in Texas were found to belong to the Aw group. All carried nearly identical large plasmids with similarity to those of a citrus canker strain from India and to xanthomonads from Africa and Colombia. All three strains harbored unusual pthA homologs.
متن کاملIn planta horizontal transfer of a major pathogenicity effector gene.
Xanthomonas citri pv. citri is a clonal group of strains that causes citrus canker disease and appears to have originated in Asia. A phylogenetically distinct clonal group that causes identical disease symptoms on susceptible citrus, X. citri pv. aurantifolii, arose more recently in South America. Genomes of X. citri pv. aurantifolii strains carry two DNA fragments that hybridize to pthA, an X....
