Mol Plant Microbe Interact. 2020 Nov;33(11):1274-1276. doi: 10.1094/MPMI-05-20-0111-A. Epub 2020 Sep 24.

Abstract

The phytopathogen Pantoea stewartii subsp. indologenes causes Stewart's wilt disease in lucky bamboo. Here, we report the complete genome of P. stewartii subsp. indologenes ZJ-FGZX1, which represents the first whole-genome sequence of an isolate from China. The assembled genome consisted of three contigs, with one circular chromosome of 4,550,072 bp and two circular plasmids of 326,337 and 106,454 bp. The complete genome will provide a valuable resource for further studies on bacterial blight worldwide.

Keywords: Dracaena sanderiana; P. stewartii subsp. indologenes; genome.
