Complete genome sequence resource of a strain of Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens, the causal agent of bacterial wilt of common bean, from Turkey
Phytopathology 110 (12), 2010-2013
Abstract: Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens is the causal agent of bacterial wilt of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), a disease that can reduce yields of this economically important crop worldwide. Current genomics resources for this bacterial pathogen are limited. Therefore, long-read sequencing was used to determine the complete genome sequence of a pathogenic C. flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens strain isolated from common bean leaves showing irregular necrotic lesions with yellow borders collected in a commercial field in Turkey in 2015.
