Draft Genome Sequences of Two Xanthomonas vesicatoria Strains from the Balkan Peninsula

Genome Announc. 2015 Feb 12;3(1):e01558-14. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01558-14.

Abstract

Xanthomonas vesicatoria causes bacterial spot disease of pepper and tomato plants. We report here the first genome sequences of X. vesicatoria strains that have been isolated from pepper plants. These data will be used for comparative genomics and will allow the development of new detection and typing tools for epidemiological surveillance.
