Abstract

We present here the draft genome sequences of type/pathotype strains for three Xanthomonas species and pathovars with different host specificities, the Hedera helix L. pathogen Xanthomonas hortorum pv. hederae WHRI 7744 (NCPPB 939T), the rice pathogen X. oryzae pv. oryzicola WHRI 5234 (NCPPB 1585), and the cotton pathogen X. citri subsp. malvacearum WHRI 5232 (NCPPB 633).
