Abstract
Erwinia toletana was first reported in 2004 as a bacterial species isolated from olive knots caused by the plant bacterium Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi. Recent studies have shown that the presence of this bacterium in the olive knot environment increases the virulence of the disease, indicating possible interspecies interactions with P. savastanoi pv. savastanoi. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of an E. toletana strain.
Highlights
Erwinia toletana was first reported in 2004 as a bacterial species isolated from olive knots caused by the plant bacterium Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi
Erwinia toletana is a nonpathogenic Gram-negative member of the Enterobacteriaceae family, and it was isolated in 2004 from knots induced by Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi in olive plants (Olea europaea L.) [1]
It is currently unclear whether E. toletana in the olive knots is an epiphyte, an endophyte, or both
