Abstract
New Guinea impatiens (NGI, Impatiens hawkeri) are popular bedding plants that can be affected by a number of pathogens. Using 16S rDNA sequencing and genus-specific PCR, we identified the first Dickeya dianthicola strain isolated from NGI presented with blackleg symptoms, herein designated as D. dianthicola 67-19. Here, we report a high-quality complete and annotated genome sequence of D. dianthicola 67-19. The 4,851,809 bp genome was assembled with Nanopore reads and polished with Illumina reads, yielding 422× and 105× coverage, respectively. This closed genome provides a resource for future research on comparative genomics and biology of D. dianthicola, which could translate to improved detection and disease management.
