Complete Genome Sequence of Leifsonia xyli subsp. cynodontis Strain DSM46306, a Gram-Positive Bacterial Pathogen of Grasses
نویسندگان
چکیده
We announce the complete genome sequence of Leifsonia xyli subsp. cynodontis, a vascular pathogen of Bermuda grass. The species also comprises Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli, a sugarcane pathogen. Since these two subspecies have genome sequences available, a comparative analysis will contribute to our understanding of the differences in their biology and host specificity.

A Type Ib ParB protein involved in plasmid partitioning in a gram-positive bacterium.
Our current understanding of segregation of prokaryotic plasmids has been derived mainly from the study of the gram-negative bacterial plasmids. We previously reported a replicon of the cryptic plasmid from a gram-positive bacterium, Leifsonia xyli subsp. cynodontis. The replicon contains a putative plasmid partition cassette including a Walker-type ATPase followed by open reading frame 4 witho...
متن کاملCharacterization of the variants, flanking genes, and promoter activity of the Leifsonia xyli subsp. cynodontis insertion sequence IS1237.
We performed a comprehensive study of the distribution and function of an insertion sequence (IS) element, IS1237, in the genome of Leifsonia xyli subsp. cynodontis, a useful genetic carrier for expressing beneficial foreign genes in plants. Two shorter IS1237 isoforms, IS1237d1 and IS1237d2 resulting from precise deletion between two nonperfect repeats, were found in the bacterial genome at a ...
متن کاملThe genome sequence of the gram-positive sugarcane pathogen Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli.
The genome sequence of Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli, which causes ratoon stunting disease and affects sugarcane worldwide, was determined. The single circular chromosome of Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli CTCB07 was 2.6 Mb in length with a GC content of 68% and 2,044 predicted open reading frames. The analysis also revealed 307 predicted pseudogenes, which is more than any bacterial plant pathogen seq...

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli strain gdw1, isolated from the stem of Badila sugarcane located at the Guangdong Key Laboratory for Crops Genetic Improvement (Guanzhou, China), that causes ratoon stunting disease of sugarcane. The de novo genome of Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli was assembled with 48 scaffolds and a G+C content of 67.68%, and contained 2.6 Mb...
