Complete genome sequence of the kiwifruit bacterial canker pathogen Pseudomonas savastanoi strain MHT1.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pseudomonas savastanoi is an important plant pathogen that infects and causes symptoms in a variety of economically important crops, causing considerable loss of yield and quality. Because there has been no research reported to date on bacterial canker of kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) plants caused by P. savastanoi and, in particular, no in-depth studies of the complete genome sequence or pathogenic mechanism, long-lasting and environmentally friendly control measures against this pathogen in kiwifruit are lacking. This study therefore has both theoretical value and practical significance.

Results

We report the complete genome sequence of P. savastanoi strain MHT1, which was first reported as the pathogen causing bacterial canker in kiwifruit plants. The genome
