Abstract
We report the draft genome sequence of the flagellated strain CFBP 4884 of Xanthomonas fuscans subsp. fuscans, which was isolated in an outbreak of common bacterial blight of beans along with non-flagellated strains. Comparative genomics will allow one to decipher the genomic diversity of strains cohabiting in epidemics.
Highlights
We report the draft genome sequence of the flagellated strain CFBP 4884 of Xanthomonas fuscans subsp. fuscans, which was isolated in an outbreak of common bacterial blight of beans along with non-flagellated strains
The only genome sequence available of X. fuscans subsp. fuscans was obtained from a non-flagellated strain (5)
Motility was identified in 95% of the tested X. fuscans subsp. fuscans strains
Summary
We report the draft genome sequence of the flagellated strain CFBP 4884 of Xanthomonas fuscans subsp. fuscans, which was isolated in an outbreak of common bacterial blight of beans along with non-flagellated strains. Fuscans is one of the causal agents of the common bacterial blight of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) (1). This disease is distributed worldwide where beans are cultivated, except in arid tropical regions (2). Bacterial blight of beans is the most devastating bacterial disease of beans (3) which can cause a 40% yield loss (2).
