Complete Genome Sequence Obtained by Nanopore and Illumina Hybrid Assembly of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis CPBF 427, Isolated from Buds of a Walnut Tree

Abstract

We report the genome sequence of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis strain CPBF 427, which was isolated from early-season buds of a diseased walnut tree, suggesting overwinter potential. This study provides a consistent genomic reference for this pathovar and may contribute to addressing the overwinter survival of these walnut pathogens.

Specific and sensitive detection tools for Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina, the causal agent of bacterial blight of hazelnut, developed with comparative genomics

“…The genomes and/or plasmids of several pathovars of X . arboricola , including Xac , have been sequenced ( Pothier et al., 2011b ; Pothier et al., 2011c ; Ibarra Caballero et al., 2013 ; Garita-Cambronero et al., 2014 ; Cesbron et al., 2015 ; Higuera et al., 2015 ; Ignatov et al., 2015 ; Garita-Cambronero et al., 2016a ; Garita-Cambronero et al., 2016b ; Garita-Cambronero et al., 2016c ; Harrison et al., 2016 ; López-Soriano et al., 2016 ; Garita-Cambronero et al., 2017 ; Retamales et al., 2017 ; Fernandes et al., 2018 ; Fu et al., 2018 ; Gétaz et al., 2018 ; Nuñez Cerda et al., 2021 ; Teixeira et al., 2021 ; Cuesta-Morrondo et al., 2022 ; D’Amico-Willman et al., 2022 ; Herbert et al., 2022 ; Kałużna and Pothier, 2022 ; Pothier et al., 2022 ). The available sequence data and the needs of the grower community and diagnostic laboratories prompted us to develop rapid, accurate and sensitive tools for the bacterial blight of hazelnut causal agent.…”
